Album: OK Computer (1997, Capitol)
Written by: Thom Yorke, Phil Selway, Ed O'Brien, Colin Greenwood and
Jonny Greenwood

=======================================================================

In my opinion the other tabs of this song are not only lazy but also
inaccurate. Although this may not be exactly what is played on the
album, it's closer than the others, which include incorrect chord
progressions. The chords are very difficult to hear, but if you listen
closely you can tell they are more complex and have slight changes,
some of which I couldn't figure out include exactly. At any rate, this
is my best effort and if you think it sounds wrong, try listening to
the song with some headphones and I think you'll hear a lot of what's
written below. Everything is on an acoustic guitar, except the outro
which is actually played by a distorted electric bass. Playing the
written chords will sound fine for just the guitar. E-mail me with any
questions, comments, corrections or concerns.
