Radiohead - Idioteque chords

Highlighted       Show chord diagrams
Some of the chords on this site sound excellent played by themselves,
 but they were not close enough to the original.
Others were exactly (or almost) like the synth in the song,
but not "full" enough to play as an acoustic "guitar+voice" kind of thing.

So this is my attempt at having both fidelity and a fuller sound.
For the synth tab, thanks to Gallagher2006

I've basically just re-tabbed the synth for guitar.

so that the right changes are accentuated in each passage, but you can if you wish)
