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

Rest, then play Verse and Chorus.

ENDING:

The ending is very weird, it's a ton of variations from the verse and chorus.

I'l still haven't figured out exactly what it is. But as soon as I get it

I'll let you people know.
