this is not 100% accurate, specially the final part. it sounds a lot like the song but not exactly.
  i have never seen an exact tab =) 


radiohead
2+2=5

from leaked "hail to the thief"







the first part is just a D5


then the song starts:

    ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 
    i                                                                                            i
    i  (Fm)                         (F M7 sus2)                                                  i
e---i--------------------------------------------------------------   repeat                     i 
b---i--------------------------------------------------------------                              i

enter lyrics, continue playing this.


then it changes when thom says "when two and two"
instead of "1" in g sting you play:

  (F)                            (F# dim)    (Gm)          (Fm)          (C)

a--------------3------------3------------3-------------5-------------3------------3-------------3----------3-------
E------------1------------1------------2-------------3-------------1------------3-------------3----------3---------



repeat until


it's the devil's way



guitar plays in the B string


    (Fm)               (Em)               (C#)             (C)              (D#)              (C#)                        (C)
