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

Bridge 2 (part 1): 12 times

The Intro/Verse is fingered, it takes some getting used to but it's really cool.

There is no outro, the song ends right after the last chorus line.

Maybe I've counted some bits wrong, but if you listen to the song you should be able to figure it out.

Have fun!
