This is a re-corrected version based on my last (ancient) lucky you tab.
Lostprophets - Lucky You
Tabbed BY: Will Sharp
Tuning : DADGBE
Email: chimaira_tool@hotmail.com
This is all my own work, was a bitch to count the number of times
stuff was played. Any comments email me. Its about 99% correct.
Verse
Guitar 1: (clean)
: Constantly play the A string in this riff so the riff is CONSTANTLY PLAYED.
Don't pick the slides, let the slides make the noise. Also the 2 power chords
next to each other will sound like they are 'slid' between.
Also a possibility is as the riff continues the low D string might be played
constantly too (but it is fretted on the 3rd fret with the A string)

When you have played this through, go back to the beginning but REPLACE the 'INTRO' with
an extra "--3-5-5h7-7-7-3-3--" riff so you play 3 repeats of that riff rather than 2.
Once the riff has been repeated 2 an a half times, Guitar 1 goes into chorus.
Verse
Guitar 2: plays this to start and over the top of Guitar 1.
The chords played that ring are with distortion on.
