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

with the muted notes in the verse, it's far easier to "tap" them with one of
the fingers on your
right hand than to actually pluck them - i think this is what Scott Weiland
(Linkin Park touring
bassist) does on the album and when he plays live.
