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

Government flu
JUST A LITTLE NOTE TO ANYONE WHO DOWNLOADS THIS SONG... I made a mistake
(okay a bunch of mistakes) and I don't feel like fixing every single one of
them and its much easier for me to tell you what to do instead of fixing
them all...
okay when a power chord is written down like this...
e-|---
B-|-9- it should look like this; e-|----
G-|-9- B-|-10-
D-|-7- G-|--9-
A-|--- D-|--7-
E-|--- A-|----
E-|----
so just remember... when ever a power chord crosses onto the "B"
string... move the note one fret higher on the "B" string

the rest of the song uses the same riffs as above...
uh... sorry for the inconvenience of the "B" string mistake...
