T|  RADIOHEAD-   Karma Police  (Rhodes Piano)
A|  
B|  transcription by Joey Gallagher    (joeygallagher@hotmail.com)
N|  
A|  This tab is the Rhodes version of Karma Police that has Jonny doing alot 
B|  more different sounding stuff than the recorded version at the songs outro. 
B|  The outro of this tab is the one heard on "Meeting People Is Easy" where the 
E|  band play on the David Letterman show.
R|  I've never transcribed something for the piano so bear with me. I can't be 
.|  arsed to go into every detail Jonny makes but I can give you the more than 
C|  basic idea and you can take it from there. I am assuming if your learning 
O|  this that you know all the keys on a piano.
M|  
-|  (easy stuff)
T|  C# Eb  F# G# Bb      (black keys)
A|  C  D  EF  G  A  BC    (white keys)
B|  
N|  Anything written in capital letters is played with the left hand.
A|  Anything written in small letters is played with the right hand.
B|  If something is written in brackets that means your playing a chord.
B|  If something is written without brackets those are individual notes.
E|  If there is a line between two things that means play them at the same time.
R|  
.|  i.e   (Am)   f#     -Play a Am chord with your left hand and then play       
C|                  a f# note with your right.
O|  
M|  i.e   (Bm)--g#  (D) -Play a Bm chord with your left and a G# note with       
-|                  your right at the same time and then after that              
T|            play a D chord with your left.   Alright I hope                    
A|      you get this.
B|  
N|  
A|  These are the list of chords used in the song, and I have written  which 
B|  notes you must play at the same time to produce that chord.

Gonzo [New Recruit]	(3 months ago) 1 star for an attempt... just to complex... i aint that smart without my wisdom teeth anymore
189.163.248.109 [Guest]	(1 year ago) thiz zong is the bezt at the world and radiohead sure ciiiaaaao.
79.76.180.251 [Guest]	(1 year ago) just plain incorrect in parts
add salty [Guest]	(2 years ago) fuck'em
hrmm [Guest]	(2 years ago) seriously, the second chord is F# A D, not what you have, trust me, ive got it down here and u need some major corrections. also its ridiculous to read. i gave u 1 star because this really does majorly blow
guest [Guest]	(2 years ago) pretty good
68.23.161.39 [Guest]	(2 years ago) have looked over the whole thing, but you do make it more complicated. here are a few examples: (from above, my corrections are in paranthesis) E\| (Am) A C E R\| (Am/F#) F# C E .\| (Em) E G B C\| (G) G B D O\| (Fmaj7) F A C (This is just F) M\| (D) D F# A \| (G/F#) F# B D (This is Bm) T\| (C) C E G A\| (C/B) B E G (This is Em) B\| (Bm) F# B D N\| (E) E G# B
80.41.255.226 [Guest]	(2 years ago) this is wrong
213.121.24.35 [Guest]	(2 years ago) Could you make this any more complicated to read? Apart fomr that pretty good.
