Big Ideas Bass

(ver. 1)
Radiohead
Tuning: Standard (E A D G)

I tabbed this off a live cd. Salamanca 08/07/02. I can't guarantee that it will match up with every live version because I know a lot of them are different with lyrics and other instruments. This is my interepretation. The bass is pretty audible if you listen for it on Salamanca.

Verse 1:
