Go Slowly - Radiohead
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Tuning: Standard.
This isn't perfect, but sounds right when played with one guitar or two (one playing the
sequence, the other the picky bits).
In the song, this section is played throughout the first section, in the chimey sound.
backing sort of, cos it carries on while some picking is done over it later.

When the vocals enter, it's mainly the backing, although there is some fiddling over the
I think. Using these riffs as a basis just ad lib over the top.
For the second half of the song, play the backing part except with Bm instead of B, and
the phrase with the 0 in the bass (low E). Use a loose strum, but be sure not to hit all
strings, cos it sounds crap.
After a while the song returns to the original, full, picked backing until the fade.
Any corrections welcome. When playing you might need to fiddle around a bit to get it
right, there's a lot going on in the song and so if you're just one guitar you might need
pick and choose what you play. Listen to the song to get the timing.
