Chords

Song: A Reminder Band: Radiohead Tabbed by: Soldier Poet (Pieter K.) This is a nice but quite unknown song. But like almost all Radiohead songs, it has this ambience. :) There are three different guitars playing in this song; I`ve put the Guitar 1 parts first and at the end you can find the other parts if you need them. I`ve done this because the Guitar 1 parts are the most important, and to avoid confusion. GUITAR 1 During the intro, Guitar 1 plays something like this:

e|------------------|
B|----5-------------|
G|-------9--9-9-----|
D|----------9-9-----|
A|------------------|
E|------------------|

Just vary a bit with this. Or just strum the E chord! Verse 1:

Guitar 1 plays these chords in this order:
   E   C   G  Gmaj7 E
e|-0-|-3-|-3-|-2-|--0-|
B|-0-|-5-|-3-|-3-|--0-|
G|-1-|-5-|-4-|-0-|--1-|
D|-2-|-5-|-5-|-0-|--2-|
A|-2-|-3-|-5-|-1-|--2-|
E|-0-|---|-3-|-3-|--0-|

Listen to the song for the strumming pattern. E C G Gmaj7 E If I get old, I'll not give in And if I do, remind me of this Remind me that I was once free Once I was cool Once I was me E C G Gmaj7 E And if I sit down and cross my arms Hold me up to this song Chorus: D A C E Knock me out, smash out my brains C E B Am E If I take a chair, start to talk shit... Verse 2: E C G Gmaj7 E If I get old, remind me of this: That night we kissed, and I really meant it Whatever happens, if we're still speaking Pick up the phone, play me this song GUITAR 2 & 3 PARTS Intro: Guitar 2 (distorted) plays small fills through the intro, like:

e|------------------|
B|------------------|
G|-----11/12\11-----|    Also just improvise a bit in E major and with
D|------------------|    the notes from the Guitar 1 part, use your
A|------------------|    imagination!
E|------------------|

Guitar 3: from around 0:55 you can hear a third guitar strumming this chord. It`s best strum this with your nails because it sounds too heavy when played with a plectrum:

e|---|
B|---|
G|-9-|  Listen to the song for the strumming pattern.
D|-9-|
A|-7-|
E|---|

Verse 1: Guitar 2 (overdriven) just plays this chord a lot during the verse (once at the of each bar):

e|------|
B|--5---|
G|--9---|
D|------|
A|------|
E|------|

And at certain moments he plays this:

e|----------|
B|----------|
G|-11/12\11-|
D|----------|
A|----------|
E|----------|

He also plays other fills, but again just improvise a bit. Guitar 3 quietly strums this all the time (every bar, just listen to the song):

e|---------------|
B|---------------|
G|--9-9-9-9------|
D|--9-9-9-9------|
A|---------------|
E|---------------|

Chorus: I think Guitar 2 just plays arpeggio`s here but I`m not sure yet. I`ll do this later I suppose. Soloish thingy by Guitar 2 (distorted):

e|---12~----/17~-----12~---------|
B|-------------------------------|
G|-------------------------------|
D|-------------------------------|
A|-------------------------------|
E|-------------------------------|

Now THAT is hard, huh? :) Verse 2: Guitar 2: repeat earlier notes and fills, the only clear fill that can be heard here is little bend: G|-11b-| (distorted)
