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

o play prechorus

o play chorus

That is the whole song. You can't see it, but the intros are supposed to be

played super-fast. Just listen to the song and you'll understand. I'm pretty

sure that most of this is right, but some of it's probably wrong since my

computer hates purevolume. E-mail me if you have corrections.
