                         Your Lucky Day In Hell - Eels
 
                    From the album, "Beautiful Freak" (1997)
 
                  --------------------------------------------
 
                                *LP Version*
 
                          [Transcribed by TNT SHWE]
 
Notes:
 
          Here's a nice Halloween-ish song transcribed especially for
Halloween night.  The song couldn't come from a freakier band.  The Eels
are definitley the experts when it comes to delivering cold haunting
melodies combined with eerie lyrics.  This is one of my favourite tracks off
their fabulous album.  This one would happily fit into a good horror movie
and couldn't come at a better time, with the horror genre going retro!
Go  ahead, I dare you to play this one alone!
 
          To make the most out of the chords, play all the sections except
the Choruses with lots of added bass.  Play the Choruses with light sweep
picking movements.

I'm not sure about the chorus on this one, It seems to sound better if you play: C Dm Am F/E This could be your lucky day... In hell
+3
sorte_muld
The chords are way off. In example the first chords shoud be Am: x- 0-2-2-1-0, then Fmaj7/A: x-0-3-2-1-0 and Fmaj7aug/A: x-0-4-2-1-0
+1

I agree with both jaytmek & sorte_muld. Am sounds better than G in the chorus, but still doesn't sound 100% spot on. But the verse is just as sorte_muld suggests.
