O Lucky Man by Alan Price
From the movie O Lucky Man, which is without question Malcolm MacDowell's greatest work!

Tabbed by Glenn Orange, a busker from Charleston. 10-19-2009
Into and verse:

A--A-A-A                            D--D-D-D                   A--A-A-A       G--G-G-D   


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


F                         G
preachers and poets and scholars dont know it

F                           G
temples and statues and steeples wont show it

F                                     F                  A   G   D
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 : A B C D E

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)
          A                   B               
You'll be better by far to be just what you are

       C                         D            E
You can be what you want if you are what you are
                   A      G   D    End on A
and thats a lucky man!
