"Fake Plastic Trees" by Radiohead

Okay, this is pretty accurate, I took the chords
that Gene listed and put them to the lyrics, figuring
out the exact changes and the strumming pattern. It
sounds almost perfect when I play along to my CD and
it works well enough.

Corrections? e-mail: glennrub@delphi.com


Strumming pattern:

e---------------------- (only strum for the D chord)
B----------x-----------
G----------x-----------
D---x-x----x-----------
A---x-x----x----------- (for the D chord, don't play this string...)
E--don't play----------

(4 of the above strums equals what you should play for
each chord when it changes)

(on the D/A/D change play 2 strums D, then 2 strums A, then 4 strums D)


Start strumming A for the intro, come in with
the lyrics on the second strum of the pattern)

A                            F#m
Her green plastic watering can

                               D
For her fake chinese rubber plant

              A     D
In the fake plastic earth

A                               F#m
That she bought from a rubber man

                            D
In a town full of rubber plans

       A      D
To get rid of itself



             Bm
It wears her out..

             A
It wears her out..

             Bm
It wears her out..

             A
It wears her out


A                         F#m
She lives with a broken man

                        D
A cracked polystyrene man

          A           D
Who just crumbles and burns

A                   F#m
He used to do surgery

                      D
For girls in the eighties

            A      D
But gravity always wins


                 Bm
And it wears him out..

             A
It wears him out..

             Bm
It wears him out..

      A
It weeeeeaaaars


A                            F#m
She looks like the real thing

                           D
She tastes like the real thing

          A     D
My fake plastic love

A                         F#m
But I can't help the feeling

                             D
I could blow through the ceiling

           A        D
If I just turn and run

                Bm
And it wears me out

            A
It wears me out

            Bm
It wears me out

            A
It wears me out

               Bm
And if I could be who you wanted

           A
If I could be who you wanted

       Bm
All the time..

       A
All the time..

A (with more energy)

F#m (with more energy)

D (with more energy, no change this time)

(end on) A

A - x02220
F#m -233222

  FAKE PLASTIC TREES  by Radiohead

  A                                   F#m
  Her green plastic wateringcan
                                       E   D
  For her fake chinese rubberplant
                A     D
  In fake plastic earth
  A                                             F#m
  That she bought from a rubberman
                                 E   D
  In a town full of rubberplants
             A         D
  To get rid of itself
       Bm        A
  It wears her out   (4x)

  She lives with a broken man
  A cracked polysterene man
  Who just crumbles and burns

  He used to do surgery
  For girls in the eighties
  But gravity always wins and

  It wears him out   (4x)

  She looks like the real thing
  She tastes like the real thing
  My fake plastic love

  But I can't help the feeling
  I could blow through the ceiling
  If I just turn and run

  It wears me out   (4x)

                Bm
  If I could be what you wanted
                A
  If I could be what you wanted
            Bm
  All the time
