Radiohead - National anthem guitar chord

RADIOHEAD- The National Anthem (Kid A)

tab by Joey Gallagher joeygallagher@hotmail.com

First off I've broken the song into segments so as to get some organized

format for this very un-organized song. I've only tabbed up until the end of

the 2nd verse, then the brass starts and it's pretty pointless tabbing all

that. What I've tabbed out is Jonnys martenot for the keyboard and guitar.

I'm using the same piano instructions as normal. I will put the note and

then the number 1,2 or 3 in conjuction so as to tell you where on the

keyboard to hit the note.

i.e A2 means hit the A note in section 2.

section 1 section 2 section3

C#DEbEFF#GAbABbC C#DEbEFF#GAbABbC C#DEbEFF#GAbABbC

*middle C

For the guitar note I will put it in brackets next to the keyboard note. I

will put the string and fret number.

So A2 (G14) means the piano is the A key in section 2 and the note

for the guitar would be played on the G string on the

14th fret.

Here is the main bass riff played over and over throughout the song.

D---------------------------------------------------------------------|

A--9----------------9-----------------8--------------7----------------|

E-----10---10--10------10--10--10-------10--10--10------10--10--10-10-|

I've organized the song by numbering it, each number represents every time

the main riff is played. Any note under that number shows where and when

Jonny plays the martenot.
