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

changes every two times through. Rather then waste space by notating

it unabridged, I have shown the other two changes right below this

section)

(As this section progresses, there are minor picking changes made by

guitar 1. Also, towards the end of this section, guitar 1 does the

slides more often. As always, listen to the song for details.)

Repeat all over again
