"Molasses" Radiohead Tabbed by Danny I. This short little b-side is a pretty easy song to play by Radiohead, since there is no chorus; just a repetitious bridge. I wish it was a lot longer (it's only two verses), since I find it fun to listen to. Like always, you'll have to hear the song to get the rhythms right, its in an odd meter (I've attempted to count it out). The hammer-ons in the base don't necessarily need to be there, since you could just slide up and down to those bass notes.

It's a fun quick song to learn. Now if only it had a nice little chorus....
