This is tablature — fret positions rather than chord names. Wide lines scroll sideways on their own, so the page never does.
Song
because of the effects the lead guitar for the chorus and pre-chorus
was hard to figure out so those parts may not be exactly right but
they work well for me.
u can play this song one fret up and half a step down too but
I find this to be easier.
