This is tablature — fret positions rather than chord names. Wide lines scroll sideways on their own, so the page never does.
Song
__________________________
/ Offspring / I think this really serious song is about this low class-American
/ The Kids Aren't Alright / who looks back at his childhood in the American ghetto, and realizes
/ Americana / that he and his friends never really had a chance to move upwards
/_________________________/ through the American social classes. Quite thought-provoking.
