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

                                              * Slowly detune low E string

How to get the sound of the intro:

* set your delay repeats to 4-5

* set your delay time to follow the tempo (around 2-3 ms)

* plug your delay pedal BEFORE your disortion pedal

* put your distortion at the max

* mute all the strings with your right hand

* put your hand on the fretboard and loop this tablature fast:
