------------------------------------------------------------------------------- My Iron Lung (Live) - Radiohead ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Tabbed by: Gallagher2006 Email: [email protected] Jonnys Guitar Tuning: EBGDGE Ed/Thom Guitar Tuning: EBGDAE Intro (Ed) w/ Ebow/ Sustain Delay Whenever you hear a droning noise in the background, it’s Ed playing around with this while adjusting the volume on his guitar. It is played with an Ebow, but can be for a heavily Reverbed and Delayed Guitar. |---------Eds Riff For Most Of Song----------------------------------|

Ed tends to strum the chords more loosely like below, but Thom seems to stick to strumming the chords without the mutes. If you are using this tab for a band with two guitarists though, I’d recommend using Eds way as it goes along with Jonnys riff a better. Also, I couldn’t line it up exactly, so isten to Song for the timing.

E|-------------------------------------------------------------0-----------------------| Continue to mash at that 17 while Thom sings the chorus again. The rest of Jonnys part impossible to tab because he his pitch shifter and pick scratches a lot, creating an impossible to tab sound. So for Jonnys final solo part, just try and stick to the main solo, but pick scrape and your pitch shifter a lot. Also, it sounds more like the original if you slide up and the neck a lot and play random notes. End on a G5 and pull off. | / slide up | \ slide down | h hammer-on | p pull-off | ~ vibrato | + harmonic | x Mute note ===============================================================================
