LUCKY MAN – Emerson, Lake, and Palmer

Tuning: Standard

Please rate this tab and offer any suggestions or comments.

Notes:
It also in 6/8 time- so accents are on first and fourth beat
Notes in parentheses are sometimes played and some times not played.
For Guitar 2 in the intro, the notes on the highest three strings are very quiet until 
D, where they are loud again. I donÂ’t play them because you can only hear them if guitar 
isnÂ’t playing, and I recommend you donÂ’t either.


I have the chords at the bottom, and here are all the riffs in the song:
