The Beatles - Lucy In The Sky guitar tab

From: Harlan L Thompson

LUCY IN THE SKY WITH DIAMONDS- The Beatles

(play this part with riff)

Picture yourself in a boat on a river

With tangerine trees and marmalade skies

Somebody calls you, you answer quite slowly

Fmaj7 (Dm7 C7sus) {optional chords}

A girl with caleidoscope eyes

Bb C

Cellophane flowers of yellow and green

F Bb

Towering over your head

C G D7 Em7 D

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

CHORUS:

G C D

Lucy in the sky with diamonds

G C D

Lucy in the sky with diamonds

G C D D A

Lucy in the sky with diamonds, ahhhhh

Follow her down to a bridge by the 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 ...CHORUS

Picture yourself on a train in a station

With plasticine porters with looking glass ties

Suddenly someone is there at the turnstile

The girl with caleidoscope eyes ...CHORUS TWICE
