Song: You Never Wash Up After Yourself Performer: Radiohead EP: My Iron Lung Writer: Yorke/Greenwood/Greenwood/Selway/O'Brien
_Notes:_ Pretty little (very little, actually, 1:40 total) song from the My Iron Lung EP2 (also on the Dutch/Australian 8 track pressing which is still in print). It appears to have some sort of personal significance to Thom - it has only been played once live, and that was the recording which appears on the EP. It has a very rustic atmosphere, which suits the fact that it was in fact recorded on a fruit farm before the Bends sessions had started.
_Effects:_ None - played clean (electric).
_Tuning:_ This song is played in standard tuning. (EADGBe).
Define chords:
Dm - XX0231 G - 320033 C - X32013 F - XX3211 Em - 022000 Am - X02210
_Rhythm:_ This song is played in 3/4. All chords are played in arpeggio-sometimes with new bass notes. Improvisation is the key! :-) I don't play this as arpeggio when I do. Either way it appears that aside from the bass note which is randomly selected only the top three strings are played anyway.
Dm - 4 bars G - 4 bars C - 2 bars G - 2 bars C - 4 bars F - 2 bars G - 2 bars Em - 2 bars Am - 2 bars C - 2 bars G - 2 bars C - 4 bars
Then repeat this again. The whole sequence is played twice - this is the _whole_ song! :-)
