Song: You Never Wash Up After Yourself
Performer: Radiohead
EP: My Iron Lung
Writer: Yorke/Greenwood/Greenwood/Selway/O'Brien

Transcribed by Aaron Heisler
(gravitygrave_resident@yahoo.com)

_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! :-)

for more information. There is also a guitar tabs
section where things like this are exchanged but as
this is a Radiohead tab it does not fit...

This song is so simple, yet really good. I read somewhere that it was recorded in one try, and it has never been played live.

As with most art I feel that whatever emotion this song does or does not evoke from the listener is what it means. IMO, once art is created and in available for public view it then belongs to the public to take from it what they will. For me, what this song represents is that feeling when you're stuck. You have ideas for creation and action, yet you don't. You know how to move forward, yet you won't. You are overwhelmed with the next step not knowing which way to turn, so you don't. And all the while you are constantly aware that life is passing you by...you know that you should at least take care of yourself, but by that point, in your brain there is no logical reason to...you can't even move...and so your life manifested physically in hygiene, emotionally in despair, lays to waste.
