LUCKY
by Seven Mary Three
from their latest album Rock Crown
transcribed by Denis Severino

This is my translation of this tune and it's pretty straight forward.
Standard tuning, no capo. The verse and chorus have only one chord with
changing base notes and there is a brief bridge near the end which is a
piece of cake. In my opinion, 7m3 performs this song so well because the
vocals are sung with such emotion, with the back up picking guitar adding
to this, and the cymbals create an effective and spontaneous build up
leading to the chorus. I haven't heard it in a while but I believe I
remember an organ in the background. Anyways, have fun and if you have
any comments I would be pleased to hear them at mseverino@geocities.com

Verse:

-------0-------0--------0------
-------0-------0--------0------
-------3-------3--------3------
-------4-------4--------4------
-------2-------2--------2------
-------4-------2--------0------

You can probably figure out the strumming pattern on your own. This
is the same chord with three different base notes. A tip is to hit the
base note signally then strum the chord a few times again hitting each
base note signally a few times during the progression. The chord
leading into each chorus is an E major which replaces the chord with
the E base note as shown above.

Chorus:

-------0------0------0------0------0------
-------0------0------0------0------0------
-------4------4------4------4------1------
-------4------4------4------4------2------
-------2------1------X------X------2------
-------X------X------4------2------0------

Same kinda thing as the verse but more powerful. I strum the chorus
as opposed to the verse where I pick one or two string at a time.

Bridge:

------0------0-------
------0------0-------
------1------3-------
------2------4-------
------2------4-------
------0------0-------

This is the bridge between the two choruses at the end of the
song. This part should be played softly.
