______________ / Thom Yorke / I think this song is about how many people live their / Analyse / lives in such a hurry and stress that they miss all the to / The Erasor / stop and think why they're actually running and stressing /_____________/ themselves all the time. They know that it "gets them down" but they don't have the time to stop and "think things through". Chords: * *you can call it if you want to In the very bottom of the tab you'll find "The Geek's Corner", where we'll extend the chords to something a little more exotic and add fills to spice things up - only for the hardcores/geeks. 1st Verse: self-fulfilling prophecy Of endless possibility You roll in reams across the street In algebra, in algebra 2nd Verse: The fences that you cannot climb The sentences that do not rhyme In all that you can ever change The one you're looking for Pre-Chorus: It gets you down It gets you down There's no spark No light in the dark It gets you down It gets you down You traveled far What have you found That there's no time There's no time To analyse To think things through To make sense 3rd Verse: Like candles in the city They never looked so pretty By power cuts and blackouts Sleeping like babies Pre-Chorus: It gets you down It gets you down You're just playing a part You're just playing a part You're playing a part Playing a part And there's no time There's no time To analyse Analyse Ana-lyse Analyse (note that the key changes from Cmajor to Cminor) - 22nd /July /06 Just mail me at Maitinin@gmail.com with questions, comments and corrections! **************************************************************************** * "The Geek's Corner" * *********************** Throughout the entire song Thom plays mainly a bass note and and high melody notes that really fucks up the harmonies and gives that weird and frustrating sound, which is very characteristic for Radiohead as well. "Hail To The Thief" (recommended!) is a great example of this. If these weird notes were to be added the chords, it'd really spice things up: * *The can even be extended to a G7b9 as the flat 9th also is played as a melody note. It's rather hard to pull this one off, but I've added fingers: ...All these chords can be played instead of the regular chords from above. You can also add these (and your own!) melody notes to the chords: These notes are played in the verses and prechorus at some point, but just add as many small melodies (these are very small) as possible as it gives this extra momentum to the guitar that usually only play chords, go for it! ****************************************************************************
