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).

When You're Gone

intro and verse:

D--------2------2-----1-------------
A---0-------0h2---------2------2-0--
E-------------------0-------0h2-----

She said she was going home
I said I'll be fine by myself
I thought that she wanted me
But she was thinking something else

Now the sun was coming up
Still I couldn't see exactly how she felt
I thought that she wanted me
But she was thinking something else


A
It don't take much to see inside my heart
E
I was never any good at telling lies
A
And it don't take too much to see there ain't too much of me
E
Here behind these eyes
B A
I miss you when you're gone
E
Please don't stay gone too long
