Right I'm not gonna ramble on about nonsense like the others do but this is my first tab
be nice... =]
Guitar 1 = Rhythm Guitar (slightly clean) - Standard Tuning E B G D A E
(instead of having to tune your guitar to Down 1/2 Step, I just tabbed it down a semitone)
Guitar 2 = Lead Guitar (slight overdrive) - Down 1/2 Step Eb Bb Gb Db Ab Eb
(for simplicity's sake I have just put it as standard tuning on the tab)
==Intro==
As suggested by digital_seige, play this for the intro, it works better:
Guitar 2 (comes in on 2nd repeat of guitar 1)
E|-----5-3----------5-3---|
B|---------0--------------|
G|-0-2----------0-2-----2-|
D|------------------------|
A|------------------------|
E|------------------------|
==Verse 1==
Nothing is played for 1st part. Just the drums and the bass I'm afraid =]
==Chorus==
Guitar 2
"He doesn't look a thing like Jesus..." (listen to song for timing... should be in
- 80% sure on this bit... try it and tell me what you think plz, cheers).

Guitar 1 plays the regular whilst guitar 2:

On the piano bit near "talks like a gentleman", get guitar 2 to do this:
|--------------|

|--9-—7-5—-4---|
|--x—-x-x—-x-7-|
|--7—-5-3—-2-x—|
|------------5—|
The rest is pretty self explanatory!
Post all comments nicely along with any corrections if you have any, I am willing to
criticism is the best way I will learn!

So there are a bunch of tabs for this song but I haven't seen one that got the opening
or the verse lead right.
I spent a lot of time on this and think it's pretty complete.
Try to keep the open G string ringing where appropriate.
Tune a half-step down.
Intro:
eb|--10---|
Bb|--10---|
Gb|--0----| Play this opening chord with a quick upstroke and then
Db|--10---| volume swell w/distortion
Ab|--8----|
Eb|--x----|
mute the strings near the 1st fret for the Radiohead ka-chunk

Dm
They say the Devil's water it ain't so sweet
F Am
You don't have to drink right now
Em Am
But you can dip your feet in
G
Every once in a little while...
Final Chorus:
Run through the F-G-Am-C-F chorus progression twice
"you sit there in your heartache..." F-G-Am-C-F
"to save you from your old ways..." F-G-Am-C-F
Until
"he doesn't look a thing like jesus..."

Lead part at the end:
Hmm, I've just worked out how to play this song, and realised there was no perfect tab.
I thought I'd have a go at making one. (This is my first time. ^_^)
Please refer to the song to get all of the timings right. (There's a load of complex
which would be tedious and difficult to type up.)
Tuning: Half-Step Down. (Although I'll refer to standard tuning throughout this song.)
INTRO:
