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

Song: It's Too Funky In Here
Artist: James Brown
Album: Dead On The Heavy Funk (1975-83)
Tabbed by: Dave Miller (dave@basstabarchive.com)

This song is funk-ay! If it doesn't get your hips
shakin', they must be broke!
It's in dropped D tuning.
This bass line is actually fingered, but the synth
follows the bass giving it a slap/pop sound. It's
tabbed with the slap/pop notation if you're playing
it without a synth.
