O Lucky Man by Allan Price
From the movie O Lucky Man, which is without question Malcolm MacDowell s greatest work!
Tabbed by Glenn Orange, a busker from Charleston, SC. 10-19-2009
Into and verse:
---- ---- ---- ----
If you have a friend on whom you think you can rely you are a lucky man
if you ve found the reason to live on and not to die you are a lucky man
preachers and poets and scholars dont know it
temples and statues and steeples wont show it
if you got the secret then try not to blow it stay a lucky man
If you found the meaning to the truth in this old world you are a lucky man
if knowledge hangs around your neck like pearls instead of chains you are a
lucky man
takers and fakers and talkers wont tell ya
teachers and preachers will just buy and sell ya
when no one can tempt you, with heaven or hell you are a lucky man
INTERLUDE AND SOLO
Barred chords :
(Repeat Chorus)
takers and fakers and talkers wont tell ya
teachers and preachers will just buy and sell ya
when no one can tempt you, with heaven or hell you are a lucky man
BRIGDE (Barred)
You ll be better by far to be just what you are
You can be what you want if you are what you are
End on
and thats a lucky man!
