Radiohead - The Bends Acoustic

i really love to play this song on acoustic , but none of the tabs i found
really sound right so i thought i’d submit my version .
let me know what you think!

intro :
listen to it to get the quick changes
D C – C/B – C C/B C x4

verse 1 :
Em7
where do we go from here?
G
the words are coming out all weird
C
where are you now , when i need you
Em7
alone on an aeroplane
G C
fall asleep against the window pane
my blood will thicken

break :
A – – – – C

verse 2 :
Em7 G
i need to wash myself again to hide all the dirt and pain
C
’cause i’d be scared that there’s nothing underneath
Em7
but who are my real friends?
G
have they all got the bends?
C
Am i really sinking this low?

chorus :
D C C/B C
my baby’s got the bends , oh no
D C C/B C
we don’t have any real friends , no , no , no

bridge :
( this part doesn’t actually have any guitar , but i like to palm mute around the 7th and
12th fret harmonics )

( 7th harmonic palm mute )
just lying in the bar with my drip feed on
talking to my girlfriend , waiting for something to

( 12th harmonic palm mute )
happen

( 7th )
i wish it was the sixties , i wish we could be happy
Em
i wish , i wish , i wish that something would happen

verse 3 :
Em7
where do we go from here?
G C
the planet is a gunboat in a sea of fear
and where are you?
Em7 G
they brought in the cia , the tanks and the whole marines
C
to blow me away , to blow me sky high

chorus :
D C C/B C
my baby’s got the bends
D C C/B C
we don’t have any real friends

bridge :
( 7th harmonic palm mute )
just lying in the bar with my drip feed on
talking to my girlfriend , waiting for something to

( 12th harmonic palm mute )
happen

( 7th )
i wish it was the sixties , i wish we could be happy
i wish , i wish , i wish that something would

i wanna be part of the human race

G
i wanna live , breathe

G
the words are coming out all weird
