This is tablature — fret positions rather than chord names. Wide lines scroll sideways on their own, so the page never does.

This tab was done by BadHeadGrrl who runs *The Quiet Room- a Babes in Toyland

page* (at http://www.inforamp.net/~gch007/babes/babes.htm) but since I

haven't seen the tab here, I figured I should send it. All mail should be

sent to her!!
