Anyone can find me a really simple explanation of how to read music (with diagrams, of course)?

I a partner to teach me to play bass, I think it would be much better understood if I could read music as a reflection of the hand. I thought it had to save a little time and effort than I care to. I think that, as the diagram that the use of classical music would more intuitive sense to me, the time the x-axis, the height in the y-axis Is this an unusual way to record music notation for bass? According I hear it is usually the inclusion of "tabs"? What are the tabs? Is this just a chain letter? It has no meaning for me, I would like the list. I am a very visual. Why I do not just stick to the visual arts, I do not know, I like challenges?

Use the drop down menu of "lessons" very clear and easy to use http://www.musictheory.net/ Start with the 1st lesson . aspx
