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

Notes: Nothing fancy although, unless your gifted with a fast right hand,

grab your pick. If you can't hear the rythm very well, listen to some classic

Iron Maiden songs (like The Trooper From Piece Of Mind) There is some

similiar galloping rythms in this song.
