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

Thank you to the folks who have sent me submissions, suggestions, and corrections. Thanks also to anyone who posted a tab on the luceromusic.com boards. You can find me there posting as Boston Twang. You can also email me at lucerotabs@gmail. Submissions and/or corrections are greatly appreciated.

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).

prettiest little girl ever I saw
stood on the banks of the Arkansas

RIFF
her hair was brown and her eyes were green
she was the prettiest little girl ever I’d seen

E
well wave the ocean and wave the sea
wave that pretty girl back to me
wave the ocean and wave the sand
A
wave this time, wave again, now look out

RIFF
prettiest little girl ever I saw
stood on the banks of the Arkansas

RIFF
her eyes were wild and her stare was mean
she's the prettiest damn girl ever I seen

E
well wave the ocean and wave the sea
wave that pretty girl back to me
wave the ocean and wave the shore
A
wave this time, wave no more
