Radiohead - Down Is The New Up guitar tab

I managed to tab this from some live footage off youtube. It varies every time but here

the main parts.

This is from a chicago gig on youtube so it may not be 100% due to sound quality.

Both parts repeat but in Verse 2 Thom plays the Chords on piano.

i.e Em F#m Em Gaug Em F#m Em

Then on the live versions there is a long coda in which jonny plays the drums in which

bass is playing the same sort of thing as the main riff. On some versions ed O'Brien

with the reverse reverb sound, although it is diffrent everytime and the sound quality

it hard to distinguish what he is playing.

But here is the main bulkAdded by tabs-database.com and our distinguished partners
