Tabbed by: C Mc B
Location: Ireland
Date: 22nd Dec 2003
Band: Radiohead
Track: Go To Sleep
Album: Hail To The Thief
I've seen couple of tabs that have done the first bit and the
chorus ok but no one had the third verse done right so I worked it out myself.
Intro/1st verse
*
e-------3-|------------------------------3-----
B-------3-|-----------6---6---8---8------3----- repeat everything after * a few
G-------0-|-----------0---0---0---0------0----- times.
D-------0-|-----------0---0---0---0------0-----
A---------|------------------------------------ s = slide
E--1s3----|--3-3s5--6---5---8---7------3-------
Sometimes there is another guitar playing this:
e-3--1--0--1-----
B-3--3--3--3-----
But they don?t play this part when they play the song live.
Also, when Thom sings the "Over my dead body" line, he plays this instead of the
main tune:
e-----------------------------3----
B-------------6---6---8---8---3----
G-------------0---0---0---0---0----
D-------------0---0---0---0---0----
A----------------------------------
E-13-13--13s6---5---8---7---3------

3rd verse - this is the one no-one had right
Riff 1:
e------------------------------------------------------------------
B------------------------------------------------------------------ only play
G------------------------------------------------------------------ this part
D--5-5-x-5-5-5-5---7-x-5---5-5---3-x-5---5-5---7-x-5---5-5--------- once
A--5-5-x-5-5-5-5---x-x-x---x-x---3-x-5---5-5---x-x-x---x-x---------
E--3-3-x-3-3-3-3---6-x-6---6-6---3-x-3---3-3---6-x-6---6-6---------
Riff 2:
e-------------------------------------------
B-------------------------------------------
G------------------------------------------- repeat this over and over
D--3-x-5---5-5---7-x-5---5-5----------------
A--3-x-5---5-5---x-x-x---x-x---8-x-7---7-7--
E--3-x-3---3-3---6-x-6---6-6---8-x-8---8-8--
2nd chorus
e-------6------8------6------8----------------
B-------6------8------6------8----------------
G-------0------0------0------0----------------
D-------0------0------0------0----------------
A-------x------x------x------x----------------
E---6-6-6--8-8-8--6-6-6--8-8-8----------------
Thom and Ed play the 3rd verse riff 1 while Jonny plays this riff twice:
e---------------------------
B--8s15-15-------6--8-------
G---------------------------
Now repeat 2nd chorus once, then back to Jonny's riff while Thom and Ed play 3rd
verse riff 1 once, then repeat riff 2 over and over until the song fades out. Jonny
plays his riff 3 times this time, then goes into a solo with effects on, which
I don?t know how to play, but when they play live Jonny just improvises it.
Live, when Jonny is about half way through his solo, Thom and Ed stop playing the
riff and Ed does this until the song ends:
e--x-x-x-----x-x-x-----x-x-x-----x-x-x--
B--x-x-x-----x-x-x-----x-x-x-----x-x-x--
G--x-x-x-----x-x-x-----x-x-x-----x-x-x--
D--x-x-x-----x-x-x-----x-x-x-----x-x-x-- etc.
A--x-x-x-----x-x-x-----x-x-x-----x-x-x--
E--x-x-x-----x-x-x-----x-x-x-----x-x-x--
