Hey Kevin. In the sixteenth bar of the verse, there will be a walk up, but it is specific. The chord is a one chord, but the bass notes walk up 1 3 5 to the 6 note which is in the bass of the four chord. I repeat that later and use an arrow to denote the walk up (arrows usually mean walk up, if we have a glissando (slid) most folks write a curved line up or down to or from a number. The underline with an arrow is a redundancy, once a pattern is established, I usually leave out redundancies. I wrote this chart out real time and didn't make any changes, I would leave it like this for a session or live show unless it needed more detail.
You can read a dozen different number charts and find a dozen different systems, but after reading them for a while, it's no problem. Some folks underline a split bar, some put a box around it, some put it in parenthesis, some just put a slash between the numbers (which, to me, can be confused with having a chord with a specific bass note...for that I just write one note over another in roughly the space where one note would be. I'll dig out someone else's charting of a song and show some differences.

You've got to know your limitations. I don't know what your limitations are. I found out what mine were when I was twelve. I found out that there weren't too many limitations, if I did it my way. -Johnny Cash It's only music. -niteshift Mike Dunbar Music

"If someone is truly a jerk, or truly is not deserving of any positive reply from you, polite indifference is the best response you can give. Do not insult. Do not slam. Do not follow the urge to be nasty. Simply be politely indifferent." –Brian Austin Whitney
