Verse1 Verse2 Chorus x2 Riff1 x10 (w/ guitar solo: around (D.f) instead of playing it until end) Ends on synthesised A chord. (on which most of the song is based around!) That's it, there are more than two guitars playing this but i'm pretty sure the chord structure is correct. /\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\ + Adrian Morse + + The Radiohead Guitar Archive @ No Alarms + + http://www.waterw.com/~amorse/radiohead/ + ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
