May I suggest you can get an inexpensive notation software program, type in the notes and let it translate it to tab for you. I like Museedit for about $60, but lots others available.
This is not a perfect way to go, because the translation doesn't alays come out in positions you want to play. Sometimes I have to use the "translate" function to move the tab up or down to get it where I want. 99% of the times this gets me close enough that I can use my ear to get it where I want. I don't type in the chords, just the melody. Also these prorams can transpose from different keys to one you're using, but sometimes that really alters the sound. At any rate, I have found it a very productive use of time.
Could I have learned to read music in the time that I took me to type the stuff -- well, sure, but you know Raymond San Jose
