/ Radiohead / Hail to the Thief (2003) / There There (The Boney King of Nowhere) guitar tab

MX Tabs -  www.mxtabs.net
Artist : Radiohead
Song : There There
Album : Hail To The Thief
Composer(s) : Yorke, Greenwood, O'Brien, O'Brien, Selway



THERE THERE

This song has an unusual structure, in that there is

intro
verse
chorus
verse
chorus
break
outro
outro

That's what I called the sections anyway lol, I'm pretty sure this tab is at leats 90% correct from studying them playing

live. The chords and riffs are basic guides from the recorded version - live, Thom improvises with the chords all over the

place (I've put some optional notes in brackets). Also note that there's only one guitar until the Outro, then Jonny gives up

playing those funky jungle drums and rocks out :-D

Enjoy
