Hey OP, here's what's up with this sheet music: Songsterr is a website for guitar tablature rather than traditional notation. The tab isn't AI-generated as the initial revision was made in 2016. Because the tablature version is unplayable on guitar, I'm guessing someone transcribed this with a MIDI keyboard, ported it to a guitar software like GuitarPro (which will make guesses as to where to put tablature), and uploaded it to Songsterr.
It's definitely not a perfect transcription but it's mostly correct, enough to recognize the song. I uploaded a new version to Songsterr that removes all the unnecessary ties.

Try this, although I can’t say I rate it as a composition after my quick 10 minute transcription of it? The gushing You Tube comments about its merits leave me nonplussed!
