Hi!

Just learning notation but have run into a slight problem... I though the sharp "#" comes after the note but here (see attached image) I see it before a note... does that not make it a flat instead of a sharp?



(click the above image to see a bigger version of it, as you can see i have copied the image twice, the second is identical except i have highlighted the problem bits/pieces)

The reason i found it a little confusing is that E does not have a sharp.... i figured it means a F sharp but still cant understand why someone would put it before the note instead of after it...

Sorry if my question is too basic, am a total beginner..

Thanks!

EDIT;
And please correct me if I am wrong... the notes are

B----G-A-B-G----A-D-F#-D----G----E-F#-G-D-----C#

right?
