The National Anthem (Live in London 2000) - Radiohead
-----------------------------------------------------
Tuning: DADGBe
Shoutout to Trifonas for figuring out the bass riff and the trumpet part:
https://tabs.ultimate-guitar.com/r/radiohead/national_anthem_ver2_tab.htm
So this tab is for the live version of the song from this video:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=COq98GatFC4
This is without-a-doubt my favourite version of the song and I love Thom's guitar sound in it.
But because the video isn't in the best quality and the guitar is really distorted, it's difficult to
figure out what Thom is playing there. So, thanks to Trifonas' trumpet tab, different live videos and
a guess, I think I figured out how to play it. This tab includes the bass riff, Ed's guitar parts, and,
of course, Thom's guitar tab.
