This is tablature — fret positions rather than chord names. Wide lines scroll sideways on their own, so the page never does.
Song
These are the tabs to "I Need Ground" from Peter Frampton's new album "Now".
This is my first attempt at tabbing out a song, but I am 99.9% sure that this
is right. The only thing I'm not sure about is the solo, but I usually just
improvise there anyways. If anybody could tab out the solo, that would be
a great help.
