    By Some Miracle

    Philip Selway

Pretty song by Radiohead drummer phil selway. Check it out. 
I think he plays in alternative tuning on the record cause some of the
 notes seem to be in a different octave, but this version sounds good and you 
can play it to the recording. 

Capo on 3

Intro:

Dm    C       Em7/B? ------>                 --x------- 
                                             --0-------
                                             --0-------
                                             --0-------
                                             --2-------
                                             --x-------

Walkup between Em7/B and the Dm through C. I like to play an octave there. 

Verse:

Dm            C           Em7/B

As I gave into temptation

Dm            C            Em7/B

I've strayed across the line

Dm          C             Em7/B

Keep it under wraps in the cold store

Dm         C              Em7/B

Put it to the back of your mind

Dm         C               Dm

Put it to the back of your mind


Chorus

Dm                C

But by some miracle 

F                    

I've just got away with it

G                         Am7

I've clawed it back again

Dm                 C

By some miracle

F

I've just got a away with it

G

I've clawed it back

Am7

I'm crawling back again


Bridge:

Dm   Dm/C#    Bb      ----- listen to figure out arpeggiation


Second verse is the same, and the chorus repeats.  The bridge ends the song. 

Enjoy.
