Give up the Ghost
by Radiohead
from King of Limbs(2011)
D
Don’t hurt me
Am
Don't hurt me
D Am
Gather up the lust in your soul
D Am
Into your arms, into your arms
D Am
Gather up the painful
D Am
Into your arms, into your arms
D Am
What seems impossible
D Am
Into your arms, into your arms
D Am
I think I have had my fill
D Am
Into your arms, into your arms
D Am
Into your arms, into your arms
Bm Fmaj7 Cmaj7
I think I should give up the ghost
D Am
Into your arms, into your arms
D Am
Into your arms, into your arms
D Am
Into your arms, into your arms
D Am
Into your arms, into your arms
Throughout the song, guitar 2 is mostly panned right, guitar 3 to the left.
Sometimes they are playing the same thing and sometimes they aren't.
Both guitars have rhythmic variations on what is tabbed, and sometimes some
notes are missed.
