Lucky Man

G D
He had white horses,
G D
And ladies by the score,
G D
All dressed in satin
G D
And wating by the door...
Chorus:
Am Em D
Oooh, what a lucky man he was
...and so on.
I've found that Greg Lake used two shapes of G, but both sound the same, =
except that you use the=20
pinky to get the 9 in the intro. Here it goes.
