Optimistic

this is probably the poorest tab ever made but i hope its something to work with johan.mickelin@abc.se /=slide h=hammer on p=pull off *=let ring during the intro this fits in pretty good e -5/-7/--2*-1/-3-2--- chords: F G D C#(or maybe F instead) D# D this is kinda of what i mean FGDFDD -----5----7-----2-----1-----3-----2----- -----6----8-----3-----1-----4-----3----- -----5----7-----2-----2-----3-----2----- ----------------------------1--------------- -------------------------------------------- -------------------------------------------- or this way FGDFDD ---------------------------------------------- ----10----12----7----6----8----7-------- ----10----12----7----5----8----7-------- ----10----12----7----7----8----7-------- ----(8)--(10)--(5)--(8)--(6)--(5)------- --------------------------------------------- i think the second guitar is playing along using the G Major scale... ----------------------------2-3-5- -----------------------3-5-------- ------------------2-4-5----------- ------------2-4-5----------------- ------2-3-5----------------------- -3-5------------------------------ NOTE: this is not how to play it! this is just the scale.. listen to the song and use this.. there is one chord that (jonny?) plays with just a slow upstroke im not sure which one but i think its some sort of F chord.. im sure i got lots of things really wrong but i hope i at least helped you guys out.. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- RADIOHEAD - Optimistic Ezequiel Claverie injektilo@uol.com.ar Ok, as there isn't any good quality recording of this song so I wasn't able to tab it perfectly. Anyway, here you have some chord so you can play and sing... enjoy!!
