Blow Out Radiohead
Tab by Sushimiaumiau (AbbeySP)
This is the acoustic version played by
Thom Yorke with Posies.
I'm sick of that classic, non-accurate at all tabs that
have been roaming the net by years! They're wrong! I'm not
saying my version is 100% accurate but at least it sounds
MUCH better and it's easier to play! Just try it out ;)
In first, the main chord isn't (0-2-2-0-0-2)
but 0-9-x-0-7-0. It is called Emadd9 or something but
doesn't matter (it's the same chord you play
on the bridge of Lucky):
,---------.

It repeats all over the intro and verses.
Then a G and a Asus2 come like this:

The bridge:
E|---0--x---0---0---0---x---0--|--0---x---0---0---0----| B|---9--x---9---9---9---x---9--|--9---x---9---9---9----| G|-----------------------------|-----------------------| D|--11--x--11--11--11---x--11--|-11---x--11--11--11----| A|---0--x---0---0---0---x---0--|--0---x---0---0---0----| E|-----------------------------|-----------------------| E|---0--x---0---0---0---x---0--|--0-----0---0---0---x--| B|---8--x---8---8---8---x---8--|--7-----7---0---0---x--| G|-----------------------------|------------9---9---x--| D|--10--x--10--10--10---x--10--|-10----10--10--10---x--| A|---0--x---0---0---0---x---0--|--0-----0---0---0---x--| E|-----------------------------|-----------------------|
Doing that way you will be able to return to Emadd9 chord easily.
I'm thinking of tab this with GuitarPro. But it will be later.
Just one final thing: this is a very exclusive tab.
It actually exists only in Ultimate-guitar.
So if you record yourself playing it
and upload your video to YouTube, please give proper credit.
If you don't do so, I will know. :)
Thanks for reading.
