Tunning: Standard (E A D G B e)
Radiohead - My Iron Lung
* Album: The Bends

* Guitar tab by Wiktor Banck

*Note: I've seen many "my iron lung" tabs and all sounds so wrong. so i decided to
tab it myself.

X= pick scrapes (note: to do the pick weird noise right at the end, rub
the plectrum on the up and down on the string (not top to bottom) rapidly
with distort on).

This is the main riff, but take note that everytime it's played after every
verse or chorus, there's a slight variation of it.

IT'S OK!!

ok, that's not the whole song but most parts of it.. i tabbed this song at an
acoustic guitar so i couldn't figure out the last part of the song.
But perhaps later on i can tab the whole song for you. Have fun;) please note:
if you find any problems or something that sounds wrong. mail me:)

Tuning: EBGDAE

Intro (Ed) w/ Ebow/ Sustain Delay

Whenever you hear a droning noise in the background, it’s Ed playing around with this
while adjusting the volume on his guitar. It is played with an Ebow, but can be
for a heavily Reverbed and Delayed Guitar.

Ed/Thom Riff. Ed tends to strum the chords more loosely like below, but Thom seems to
stick to strumming the chords without the mutes. If you are using this tab for a band with
two guitarists though, I’d recommend using Eds way as it goes along with Jonnys riff a
better. Also, I couldn’t line it up exactly, so isten to Song for the timing.

Continue to mash at that 17 while Thom sings the chorus again. The rest of Jonnys part
impossible to tab because he his pitch shifter and pick scratches a lot, creating an
impossible to tab sound.

So for Jonnys final solo part, just try and stick to the main solo, but pick scrape and
your pitch shifter a lot. Also, it sounds more like the original if you slide up and
the neck a lot and play random notes.

End on a G5 and pull off.

Tunning: Standard (E A D G B e)
Band: Radiohead
Song: My Iron Lung
Album: The Bends
Tabber: Andrew Biles

I found the tabs currently up either tricky to follow or with a number of
faults so decided to compile and correct the best I could. This tab
combines the three guitar parts into one so you can just play it through
with the song. I did start working on the end lead part (over the last
distorted chord section) and have included it at the bottom but it is
incomplete - although what's missing can be derived from what's included.

Everything is in order so just follow the tab down the page. There are some
elements of timing written into the tab but it's best to work it out by ear.
An Ebow is used by Ed (I think) which can be replicated by bowing with the
volume control switch on your guitar and gaining a bit of feedback from your
amp to sustain the note.

Having read that the song is apparently played with the A string tuned to G
I have created two tabs, the first for the detuned and the second version for
people wanting to play it in standard tuning.
