I know there is much knowledge to be gained from this site, that is why I am humbly asking for help.

Since I don't know theory can some one help me decipher this??

Much thanks and God Bless

I always find it helpful to listen to what the chord poster is trying to convey, by listening to the orif=gianl of the transcribed song. It becomes infinitely easier to figure out what the heck they're doing.

Im assuming that by break it down you mean help you spell out the chords ie. Bbminor7 , etc.

So this poster chose to post chord names instead of spelling he chords. To each his own, but I know most people on this site would prefer the chords to be spelled. I could use it either way, but it does catch you off guard, when someone posts chords like this, even though they are not in favor like other formats.

His format is

LH/RH
ie BbF/Bbminor7

so you play the Bb and F in your left together, then in your right you spell out a Bbminor7 (Bb, Db, F, Ab)
His single notes are in parenths (G_C) separated by an underscore.

I think more commonly you'll see single notes separated by commas.

Theres a post explaining in detail how to break that down, but if you had the recording, then you could follow along and (see) what he's talking about.

I've extended the stuff for you..look at the stuff in red for the notes to play..the rest are individual notes.

Ceds said something important though, so make sure you take it into a/c...Hopefully the song sounds as voiced by these here, otherwise you might have to change the inversions.

Thank a mil guys. it is kinda embarrassing when you are playing at church at the Spirit is high and you don't know what to do. Also, I have been scouring the site and im still trying to find some where to figure out how to use the numbers and use theory......but I guess that comes with using stuff like this.

Thanks again.......
