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

I don’t know how many times you’ll play this but count it youself ‘cause i’m to lazy right now.

******************************READ*IT*GOD*DAMN*IT***************************************

In the Verse, i’m not that sure about Guitar II. Actually i think that it is the bass

that keeps the low end in the verse but if you haven’t got a bass player you can just

do it like this. ( i think :P )

you just have to switch from Treble to Bass on you guitar to give it a deeper sound.
