This is tablature — fret positions rather than chord names. Wide lines scroll sideways on their own, so the page never does.
Song
Some of the positions were figured out using live videos, and my confidence on the accuracy is
about 95%. This is the transcription for the original album version. Very fun song to play,
with opportunities for embellishments and improv on the main chords if you feel like it.
Pay close attention because he changes things up quite a bit as the song goes along, so you're
not always playing the same thing on each verse/chorus/etc.
