xSong: A Reminder Band: Radiohead Tabbed by: Soldier Poet (Pieter K.) Tuning: Standard 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)
