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

Song

"Split Wide Open" by Cannibal Corpse

Off of the album "Tomb of the Mutilated"

Tabbed by Chris Rezendes

This song is a lot more simple than it sounds. Of course, that doesn't

make it easy, but, hell, what CC song is? Corrections are greatly

appreciated and comments are both welcome and encouraged. Both can be

sent to dadmcbad@hotmail.com.
