Little by Little Lyrics

by Radiohead
from King of Limbs (2011)
in/
Turn to nasty now
The dark cell
The pillar of my soul
in/
The last one out of the box
The one who broke this spell
Little by little by hook or by crook
I'm such a tease
And you're such a flirt
Once you've been hurt
You've been around enough
Little by little by hook or by crook
Never get nervous
Never get judged
I don't know where it is
I should look
Your clue on hold, snapped up
Crawling with my love
The last one out of the box
The one that broke the seal
Ob li ga tion
Com pli ca tion
Routines and schedules
Drug and kill you
Kill you
Little by little by hook or by crook
Never get nervous
Never get judged
I don't know where it is
I should look
Throughout the song, the guitar riffs are played with variations.
Sometimes the rhythm changes slightly, and other times notes are left out.
High guitar
The arpeggiated 2nd chord is played irregularly during the song.
Also, the reversed guitar sound is most likely this chord backwards.
Guitar 1 is in drop D, but you might as well play guitar 2 in drop D
too, since it is possible to play both at the same time.
Guitar 1
This is the guitar 2 riff. A lot of the notes are left out on
each repetition. The last bit should always be played though.
Guitar 2
With the second guitar, there are actually two guitars playing in either
ear. For the first two lines of the chorus they play roughly the same thing.
For the third the left plays 2a and the right plays 2b.
Notes in brackets are played on some variations.

A few more repetitions of the verse
Then the guitar for the chorus.
