Artist: the Beatles
Song: Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds
Album: Sgt Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band
Written by : John Lennon, Paul McCartney
Tabbed by: Max Perenchio (Maxacaster@aol.com)
Tuning: Standard
Notes: I THINK the main verse is a hammond organ. Im not sure, so ill tab it 
for the guitar anyways, thats how i play it. 
During the prechorus there is some HEAVY bending

///VERSE\\\-LET RING THRUOUT
note: to get the kinda sound that the hammond organ makes, well what i do 
anyways is have flagner pedal with low batteries (yep) set on high depth but 
low rate.

"............................... and shes gone"

3 BASS DRUM BEATS

///CHORUS\\\-Some people write the chords, but actually there arent any 
chords at all, just a quiet lead part that kind of gets muffled from the 
blasting keyboards during this part. If you listen to it with headphones its 
SIMPLE to hear. So about it, i put the chords to, just in case you want it to 
sound fuller. Leave the Flanger on, but i think the RATE speeds up a bit.
