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

MAIN RIFF (These chord changes are quite fast)
|----------------------------------------------------| |----------------------------------------------------| |-----------7--7-7/9-9-9\4---------------------------| |-2--2-5/7--7--7-7/9-9-9\4---------------------------| |-2--2-5/7--5--5-5/7-7-7\2---------------------------| |-0--0-3/5-------------------------------------------|
VERSE RIFF
|----------------------------------------------------| |----------------------------------------------------| |-------------7\----9\-------------------------------| |-2\----2\----7\----9\-------------------------------| |-2\----2\----5\----7\-------------------------------| |-0-----0--------------------------------------------|
For the weird bendy sound, just slide your finger up
the 5th string (G#, usually A) and bend a fairly high
fret up there :)
Then back to the main riff again for the chorus.
Then another verse and chorus, and then the song
changes, and gets interesting.
This riff is played a few times:
|--------------| |--------------| |--------------| |-2------------| |-2-----9--8---| |-0--0--7--6---|
Then this:
|----------------------------------------------------| |----------------------------------------------------| |----------------------------------------------------| |--5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5/7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-------| |--5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5/7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-------| |--3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3/5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-------|
Then repeat this a few times.
|----------------------------------------------------| |----------------------------------------------------| |--7--7-7-7-7-5--5-5-5-5-----------------------------| |--7--7-7-7-7-5--5-5-5-5-----------------------------| |--5--5-5-5-5-3--3-3-3-3-----------------------------| |----------------------------------------------------|
The back into the main riff and that is about it!
No solo sorry
