Intro/outro to And I Love Her

Forgive me, but how do you read the parentheses and little arches over the whole group of each chord?

Also, as a beginner with these questions should I take Uke Theory?

Thanks again so much!

Hi Bunny,

Those are tied notes. It means you hit the chord and then hold it for the length of all of them combined.

There’s an easy trick to help beginners in tab and notation - just ignore any chord in brackets.
