These two endings can be played in any key; but the bar slants are crucial depending on where in the neck you are playing them.

To play all four notes at the same time with two fingers and a thumb. I pick the top two notes with my two fingers and pick the bottom note with thumb and strum the thumb up to the next note at same time.

The ~~ means slide/sustain as opposed to picking or re-picking. So you are picking 3.4.5.strings, 12th fret and sliding your bar down to 11th fret.
Also note the title--C6, no-pedal--
this is tabbed for an 8 string lap or Hawaiian steel.

Hey Guil; there are no pedals or knee levers on a non-pedal steel. This is a Hawaiian steel 8-string C6th tuning I tabbed this for. The (~~) means to slide into or out of the notes. I hope that makes since to ya. Of course; this same tab will work for the C6 neck of the pedal steel also.

Yep! But you said it more teacherly-like.

Hey this is, like, digital delay, huh? Like wow!

The way I figure it, if we say it at the same time, Tucson & NY, they get it just about right in Branson.
