LUCY IN THE SKY WITH DIAMONDS - The Beatles


Main riff goes like this:

A A-7 D D/F
I---------------------------I---------------------------I
I-----------17------17------I----------17-----15p14-----I
I-------14--------------14--I------14---------------14--I
I---14----------17----------I--16----------15-----------I
I---------------------------I---------------------------I
I---------------------------I---------------------------I

These are just permutations of an A chord so you could play this down
on the second fret if you have an acoustic guitar. On electric, this riff
sounds really good when it sustains.

Follow the pattern or play the chords for the verse:

A A-7 D D/F
Picture yourself in a boat on a river
A A-7 D D/F ---> G
With tangerine trees and marmalade skies
A A-7 D D/F
Somebody calls you, you answer quite slowly
A A-7 F#m ---> Dm ---> C
A girl with kaleidiscope eyes


PRECHORUS:

Bb C F Bb
Cellophane flowers of yellow and green towering over your head
(slow bend)
eI-------------------------------------------I----------------------------I
bI-------------------------------------------I----------------------------I
gI--5^w-5^w-5^w-5^w-5^w-5^w---5^1/2--5^w-5^w-I-5^w-5^w-5^w-5^w-5^w-5^w-5\3I

C G D
Look for the girl with the sun in her eyes and she's gone

eI---------------------------------------------------------I--------------I
bI---------------------------------------------------------I--------------I
gI--5^w-5^w--5^w--5^w--5^w--5^w-5^w-5^w-5^w--5^w---5---4---I--2-----------I


CHORUS:

G C D G C D
Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds. Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds
G C D D ---> A
Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds. Ahhhhhhhhhhhh.



To make D/F chord:
D/F

I-----0----I
I-----3----I
I-----2----I
I-----3----I
I-----x----I
I-----x----I


^w - means whole bend
^1/2 - means half bend

------------------------------------------
cut here
------------------------------------------

Here is how I play it : (not like the above)

|--------12-------12-----------12---------9-8-------|
|----10----------------9-----------9-----------9----|
|-9-----------12----------10-----------9------------|
|---------------------------------------------------|
|---------------------------------------------------|
|---------------------------------------------------|

I think that's right. It's off the top of my head,
no guitar in front of me.

Good luck!

Lyrics

Picture yourself in a boat on a river
With tangerine trees and marmalade skies
Somebody calls you, you answer quite slowly,
A girl with kaleidoscope eyes.

Cellophane flowers of yellow and green
Towering over your head
Look for the girl with the sun in her eyes
And she's gone.

REFRAIN
Lucy in the sky with diamonds
Lucy in the sky with diamonds
Lucy in the sky with diamonds
Ah... Ah...


Follow her down to a bridge by a fountain
Where rocking horse people eat marshmallow pies
Everyone smiles as you drift past the flowers
That grow so incredibly high.

Newspaper taxis appear on the shore
Waiting to take you away
Climb in the back with your head in the clouds
And you're gone.

REFRAIN

Picture yourself on a train in a station
With plasticine porters with looking glass ties
Suddenly someone is there at the turnstyle,
The girl with kaleidoscope eyes.

I mixed several different tabs/chord charts together to make this tab, I wanted
to make one that was more beginner friendly, so you don't have to play up on the 10 and 11 fret.
This is my first tab, so pardon the poor formatting, if you have any questions/
complaints about the song email me at Tanner.J.Ellis@gmail.com and I'll be sure to
respond. Have fun! :D
