/ Radiohead / My Iron Lung [EP] (1994) / Creep (Acoustic) guitar tab

Acoustic Creep from Iron Lung EP 
===========================

Sg-310L@hotmail.com - Richard Busby. June 1997.
It is different(better?) to Pablo Honey version.

2 different chord positions.
I think the first positions sound nearer to the recording.

EADGBE - Chords layout.

Finger-ache inducing positions:-
--------------------------------
G                      Gsus4 
[ 3 5 5 4 3 3 ]      [ 3 5 5 5 3 3 ]

B                      Bsus4 
[ 2 2 4 4 4 2 ]      [ 2 2 4 4 5 2 ]

C                      Csus4  
[ 3 3 5 5 5 3 ]      [ 3 3 5 5 6 3 ]

Cm                     Csus4
[ 3 3 5 5 4 3 ]      [ 3 3 5 5 6 3 ]

Simple positions:-
------------------
G                  Gsus4
[ 3 5 5 4 3 3 ]      [ 3 5 5 5 3 3 ]

B                   Bsus4
[ 7 9 9 8 7 7 ]      [ 7 9 9 9 7 7 ]

C                    Csus4
[ 8 10 10 9 8 8 ]     [ 8 10 10 10 8 8 ]

Cm                   Csus4
[ 8 10 10 8 8 8 ]     [ 8 10 10 10 8 8 ]

Occasionaly sus4 chords replaced by what I worked 
out to be sus5 chords
ie  [ 8 10 12 10 8 8 ]  is Csus5

Entire song - G Gsus4 B Bsus4 C Csus4 Cm csus4 
played a lot of times
Chorus is just above chords repeated.

For both, repeat until either:
(a) Song is over
(b) Your fingers ache like nothing has ever ached before! (-:

You're so VERY special...

version ii:

----------------------------------------------------------------
Creep (acoustic) by Radiohead (on my iron lung EP) Tabbed by 
Stuart Winchester stuart@winchester.force9.co.uk
----------------------------------------------------------------

These are the chords of the acoustic version.  This song
is pretty cool and buskable methinks.


   
low E |--3---3---3---|--7---7---7---|---8----8----8---|---8---|
      |--5---5---5---|--9---9---9---|--10---10---10---|--10---|
      |--5---3---5---|--9---7---9---|--10----8---10---|--10---|  back to start
      |--4---5---4---|--8---7---8---|---9---10----9---|---8---|
      |--3---3---3---|--7---9---7---|---8----8----8---|---8---|
high E|--3---3---3---|--7---7---7---|---8----8----8---|---8---|


You'll obviously have to listen to the song to get the rhythm.
But heres a *quick* explanation.

A lot of the 1st. A quick 2nd (3/4 strums). A little more 1st. big chord change.
---------------3----------3---------------------------3------------|
---------------5----------5---------------------------5------------|
---------------5----------3---------------------------5------------|
---------------4----------5---------------------------4------------|
---------------3----------3---------------------------3------------|
---------------3----------3---------------------------3------------|

Sorry if it may seem a little patronising, but you need to hear the
song whatever.  I'm probably right in saying that when the song gets
to around the 7 or 8 frets the two highest strings are muted.  I'm
not too sure tho.
