About This Blog

I started this blog because the tabs on the Lucero message board kept getting lost when they switched sites. A blog isn't a perfect forum for guitar tabs and chords, but it now has posts for all but a handful of their songs. And, to the best of my knowledge, this is the only source for Lucero tabs that has been endorsed by an actual Lucero guitarist. Accept no substitutes.

Holy shit! That's how that goes... www.lucerotabs.blogspot.com

General Thoughts on Lucero Chords

Ben seems to favor chord variations that fret the B string at the third fret. If a C, Em, G, or A doesn't seem quite right, try:
Cadd9 (x32030), Em7 (022030), G (320033), Asus (x02230)

Also, I think he leaves the E string open on a lot of his D chords (xx0230).

Last Night In Town

I found sort of a big mistake in the main riff (I had an F# in where it should be the A). This should be right now.

Main Riff

e
B
G---------------2-----------------
D---2------2----2-2----2-4b5b4--2-
A---2--2h4--2h4-0-2-2h4-----------
E---0-------------0---------------

verse

E G#5 A5 E G#5 A5 E G#5 A5 B5 A5 x 2

chorus

A E A E A E F#5 B5

Underneath solo

D A E (and some fancy shredding)

I don't have a tab for Brian's solo, but here's a tab of the way Ben played the solo at a solo acoustic show in June of 2005. It works pretty well if you're playing by yourself.
