Song

"Follow Me Around"

by Radiohead

UNRELEASED

Tabbed by: Hugh Nettar

This is the guitar tablature for one of Radiohead's unreleased songs, entitled

"Follow Me Around", as performed in the "Meeting People Is Easy" video.

Of course, it is not exactly how Thom Yorke plays it, but rather my interpretation

of it from watching the video. Thom's genius makes this piece fly despite using

only two chords, D and G.

They are basically as follows (PLEASE NOTE the dropped D tuning):

D major G major

D A D G B d D A D G B d

O-O-O-----O					----0-0-0-0

The MPIE video version has Thom basically playing around this, picking a bit here and there.

But this should give you the rough idea. Not bad for my first tablature, huh? Anyway, here

are the lyrics, also available from Injektilo* at:

I see you in the dark

Falling down the fast lane

Calling out to me

Oh that's where I'll be

Crawling out to me

You follow me around

And I'm coming down

Maybe I'll take you for a walk
