***STANDARD TUNING NO CAPO***
These chords are not completely accurate, but the lyrics are accurate (according to the
album booklet, but Radiohead has a tendency to have different lyrics in their booklets,
don't ask me why). These are based off of the GP version by RicardoRAVB and tweaked by me.
The original note pattern (for the verse) is as following:
||: (first bar)
:|| (second bar)
My edited version is this:
() ()
The extra chords ( and ) are optionnal and consist of ''fiddling'' around with
the pinky on these notes:
(major) (major)
|-0-| |-0-| |-2-|<-*->|-3-|
|-1-|<-*->|-3-| |-3-| |-3-|
|-0-| |-0-| |-2-| |-2-|
|-2-| |-2-| |-0-| |-0-|
***The note added with covers the ''B'' that is replaced from the original
sequence. The ''G'' added in is compeletely irrelevent, but i believe it has a
good ring
to it. As I said before, these notes are optionnal so I won't put them in the tabs, but
I play them with every ''C'' or ''D'' in exeption of the chorus. Enough explinations for
now, here are the tabs:
/Riff x4
The mongrel cat came home
Holding half a head
Proceeded to show it off
To all his new found friends
He said I been where I liked
I slept with who I liked
She ate me up for breakfast
She screwed me in a vice
And now
(whole chorus)
I don't know why I feel so tongue-tied
Riff x2:
I sat in the cupboard
And wrote it down in neat
They were cheering and waving
Cheering and waving
Twitching and salivating like with myxomatosis
But it got ed-it-ed fucked up
Strangled beaten up
Used in a photo in time magazine
Buried in a burning black hole in devon
(whole chorus)
I don't know why I feel so tongue-tied
Don't know why I feel so skinned alive
My thoughts are misguided and a little naive
I twitch and I salivate like with myxomatosis
You should put me in a home or you should put me down
I got myxomatosis
I got myxomatosis
Yeah no one likes a smart arse but we all like stars
That wasn't my intention, I did it for a reason
Original Audio Ending:
It must have got mixed up
Strangled beaten up
I got myxomatosis
I got myxomatosis
(whole chorus)
I don't know why I feel so tongue-tied
/Riff x?
The original (non-acoustic) is a fade. I preffer to end it with a ''G'' but it's totally
up to you.
Booklet Ending:
He shook hands with the cripples and he gave them all milk
He did a few card tricks for his mafia geeks
But now I don't know why I feel so tongue tied
***I have no idea how that last part is played, but you can have fun figuring it out***
