Another awesome tune from Radiohead.Though the chords to this stuff are pretty easy, the variations in the various compass keys complicate things a bit. But still this is an awesome song, and for those starting to play, its a great song to practice power chords.Hope y'all enjoy it!!!

wow great job there. i love your version of it. thanks for posting!

yeah. I checked your vid dude! Crazy ass chords! Great job! Especially that Eadd9. I'd prolly never use that chord, but it sounds great in yer guitar cuz of the tone. If I did those chords with my acoustic the sound whould be too bright.Thanks for sharing yer version dude. I'm sure advanced players will be very glad!You should upload more vids dude!And, thanks for uploading it. Yer the first one to actually put a vid where his mouth is. You've earned my respect, big time!ROCK ON!!!

Yeah, i mean it's all subjective. I personally like the color the extra notes add to the chords, especially when your not actually just playing along with the song ;).

LOL! The cam I used for all my latest videos is the cheapest from logitech (if not lifetech lol). You won't have a problem there. Do mind the mic.Oh, and I did try to rip it the way you said when I first learnt it, but the voicing is too bright, too much treble. It's supposed to be a bassy and dark song. With the chords you said, it just sounds... too happy, you see?It feels weird and blunt in power chords, I know. But it's this dark way that transposes best the feel of the song, I believe.

Sorry, i shouldn't have said you didn't do a good job.What i wrote actually had a mistake, i actually meant F# major, which you do correctly. I was just pointing out the subtle differences in the other chords that make the song all the more amazing. I'll post a video if you want, but i only have a crappy logitech webcam, so it probably wont be that good.

Okay, lol, first things first. I'm sorry that you didn't like it... can't go for greeks and romans.Now then, first: There's NO GUITAR in the whole song doing chords! So what's up with "what he is actually playing"?First note being an F of ANY kind is, in fact, wrong (period). I don't know wich versions you've been listening to, but ALL I've listened start with a pure and simple F#.But hey! Who am I?So whould you be oh so kind to upload a vid, enlightening us with your major skills, please?
peteback (July 28, 2008 at 10:24 pm)
This is not a good job. The correct chords that match what he is actually playing are not straight up major chords like that.Fmajor is the first chord, but then it is Gmaj7 followed by A6 (bar top 4 strings), then it is Fminor followed by Eadd9 (use pinky to get 4th fret on D string)

Geh! That sucks dude! Hope you get your stuff back soon!

yeah there's something about piano, if you can understand a tune on piano you can understand it on anything.I had a couple of AKG 1000s's that i was pretty much forced to sell having fallen on hard times a couple of years ago, but i'd rather beg on the streets than sell my guitars. Fortunately it never quite came to that, but I've sold almost all of my studio gear. One day i'll get it all back, hopefully, but in the meantime i'm, playing pianos for my friends, etc
