This is tablature — fret positions rather than chord names. Wide lines scroll sideways on their own, so the page never does.
Verse
John uses a glass slide on his little finger.
Basic riff:
E|-/7--7-7---/10--10-10---/5--5-5---/7--7-7-| C|-/7--7-7---/10--10-10---/5--5-5---/7--7-7-| G|-/7--7-7---/10--10-10---/5--5-5---/7--7-7-| C|-/7--7-7---/10--10-10---/5--5-5---/7--7-7-| G|-/7--7-7---/10--10-10---/5--5-5---/7--7-7-| C|-/7--7-7---/10--10-10---/5--5-5---/7--7-7-|
then:
"Don't want to be a thorn in your side..."
E|-\3-3-3----\10-10-10----\5-5-5-5-5-5-| C|-\3-3-3----\10-10-10----\5-5-5-5-5-5-| G|-\3-3-3----\10-10-10----\5-5-5-5-5-5-| C|-\3-3-3----\10-10-10----\5-5-5-5-5-5-| G|-\3-3-3----\10-10-10----\5-5-5-5-5-5-| C|-\3-3-3----\10-10-10----\5-5-5-5-5-5-|
