| / - Indicates a slash chord. Letter before slash indicates chord, letter after slash
indicates bass note to play over that chord. If there is no chord on the left side of slash
(eg. /A) just play single note in the bass.

| * - Still a normal triad, just indicates that there is a specific fingering that will sound best
for this chord.
