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

This is my tab for CACTUS by BUTTERGLORY off of their CRUMBLE lp on
Merge Records. It uses two guitars, here are both parts. I think that
they are both right; but my ear still relatively sucks so please forgive
errors; send any comments or "bug" fixes to me-

EASY GUITAR PART:
Strum the G major E shape bar chord (tab from low to high: 355433 )
and slide down to the F major E-shape bar chord (133211) then slide
back up, then down. Alternate in rhythm between these for the whole song.
"HARD" GUITAR PART: This is played over the EASY GUITAR PART
on a different track or by someone else if you have any friends. There
are 2 obviously identifiable sections, the CHORUS which mirrors the vocals,
and the VERSE NOTES which actually accompany them.
CHORUS:
(all instrumental)
Play: I - I - II - I
I.

VOCALS:
1 when the rainfall started you were on the road
2 you packed up everything and the rest was sold
3 and I saw you drivin through the rain
4 but it made no difference everything was the same
5 when you got to phoenix you found a hotel
6 you watched the sunset you were feeling swell
7 ** I can't decipher this lyric. Sorry. Your option!
If you figure it out email me.
8.you were still smiling no one knew your dream
