Chords for Greg Lake Interview

Real live musicians ladies and gentlemen here on the show.
We are backtracks from Jubilee Auditorium
Do you know you know much about this this building?
I don't know home of the Edmonton Symphony
Is that right?
Do you remember who the first rock and roll band to kind of play with a Edmonton Symphony?
Who's that?
No call harm.
Was it this was the building was [Fm] it really the very building?
Well, there [N] you go.
You see amount of knowledge you are _ _
How do you have a
You have an ear for lyrics you have a an eye for the visual
But when you're on stage there and I was watching you work out do you still think as a producer as well?
It's a habit.
I can't get [Eb] out of it.
It's when I listen to Keith's keyboards.
I always hear if all the parts are [E] there You know
_ _ It's just something we do we kind [Dm] of cover each other in a way like that.
[Ab] Hmm funny funny business
[Gb] I think all of us all everybody in the band's, you know slightly critical of the other person
Where is that baseline that you had on the [Eb] record, you know?
Was that one of the things that kept getting in the way and eventually?
Cause you know all walk in different directions.
No, no, it wasn't.
Well, what happened was at the end of the [E] 70s we I think we
we just became fatigued we used to play a habit an average of [D] a hundred and eighty shows a year and
[E] Every 18 months we'd bring out another record.
[Eb] Well, of course, you know if you do that for 10 [Dm] years
You end [Eb] up I mean we ended up just [E] emotionally creatively fatigued physically [F] fatigued
And I think we just felt that it was time to
Time to take a break time to stop.
We did at least have some degree of originality [Eb] at that time and and that
[Ab] _
_ _ [Gbm] It I I cannot [Eb] separate it from memories, you know, [G] they are part of my life
They're part of our fans lives and now we come to play on tour with them
I think the [E] most powerful feeling [Eb] is that you can feel people's lives when you play lucky man
[E] somebody or so, you know, I remember what I was doing when I first heard [Db] it or
_ [Em] You know, I [E] remember it
We just played Budapest in Hungary and we were playing pictures at an exhibition
And I saw this chap in [Gb] the front row and he had tears streaming down [E] his face
And after the show he was waiting at the back door to get an autograph, you know
[Gb] And I went [Eb] outside and I saw him there and he was obviously distressed, you know
And I I got him inside the [Db] stage door.
I said, yeah, you know, it's only [E] music, you know
He said no you don't understand and he told me a story
He'd been put in prison for three months by the Russians for [Eb] owning pictures at an exhibition _ [Ab] and he said I've waited 15 years
_ To [Em] see you and all [Ab] that time all those memories of being a prisoner and of being suppressed obviously all flooded back to him
With this with this record of pictures at an exhibition and it's [F] that really that when I hear [Eb] material from the past
[E] It's those sort of things that make me [Db] think it was worth it
