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

SILVER TRAIN by Keith Richards & Mick Jaggar, Tabbed by Jamie Mayer

D G

Did not know her name, but I

C D G

Sure like the way she left when she called me honey

Some of the words are hard to make out and there is a lot more guitar

than the riff above, but this is basically the song.
