I’m not sure if I understand what you’re asking…. but a chord pattern might be just notations under the measures saying, G, C, G, G. Or, a chord pattern might be a picture showing you which frets are held down. Tab is almost always numbers on lines to indicate the frets.
chords are easier, u just do the strumming, while the tabs, you have to do the plucking
no difference. tab is how guitarist writes music. it’s easier to read than a score. chord patterns any one can use, bass. piano. it’s more universal. if your “charting” things out for other people use chord patterns. not every one uses tab. as a drummer if you give me tab i wouldn’t know what to do, if you give me chords i could at least follow the music. learn chords signs and symbols. you’ll find it easier in the long run.
TAB show you exactly where to put your fingers and which strings to play.
