****TAB CREATED FROM FUZZY LIVE VERSIONS DIFFERENT TO RECORDED PRE RELEASE DATE AND 
ARE DIFFRENT TO STUDIO - VERSION 4 IS CORRECT TO THE STUDIO RECORDING***

I have transcribed this from various youtube videos so there are some problems
parts and some parts may have been improvised or different on the upcoming album. I
most of
is correct or if i was unsure i have put more possibillities down. The rhythm by Kele in
is more or less unhearable on Youtube, so i have put the chords that the
implies.

If you have any suggestions or questions don't hesitate to email me at oli_turtle@hotmail.com

*also sorry f there are any allignment problems i shall try to update once it is
as i have written this using a mac which hasn't previously translated correctly positionly.

Intro - either digging down on the strings muted, fast harmonics/ artificial harmonics
more likely a wild effect pedal, or even a combination of all of them! Very hard to
here so i won't bother andwill leave that part to your imagination.

REALLY BAD QUALITY BUT NOW I THINK I CAN JUST ABOUT HEAR THE FOLLOWING FROM THE LEAD

                                                                     Fsharpm9 (I think)
E---------------------------------------------------------------------|
A-------------------------------------9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9--9-9----|
D-------------------------------------7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7--7-7----|
G-9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9--9--9--9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9--9-9-----|
B-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-9-9-10-10--9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9-10-9-----|
E---------------------------------------------------------------------|

I may be wrong and the chord could be an Fsharpmadd9 like in Forget Her by Jeff Buckley.

Fsharpm add9

E--
A-9
D-7
G-6
B-9
E--

Then after repeating this two times it goes changes

~=tremelo picking i.e play same note very fast jonny greenwood style. This part may be
with unison bends but i don't think so, so i'll leave that up to you.

E--------------------------------------|
A----------9---------------------------|
D----------7---------------------------|
G----------9----------4----------------| 4~~~~~~~~~~~  etc.
B-7~9~ 10~ 9--7~9~10~------------------|
E--------------------------------------|

Then the cool solo

RIFF
E-4-4-5-5-7-7-5-5-4-4-5-5-7-7--| x4

LEAD-A bit like an elephant

D---------------------------------------|
G---------------------------------------|
B---------------------------------------|
E-12b14r12--14b15r14-15b17r15-14b15r14--| x2

Then back into verse and then chorus again.

Then it ends with the crazy noise.
