First I must give credit to Glen Macon (macon@cbmvax.commodore.com) for
posting the original .crd text. Here is my version of the song (with TABs
for the intro). I have corrected some names of chords, corrected some
chords, but please Glen, this isn't to "flame you", just trying to be
helpful (it's a great song...). Any other ELP TABs or CRDs around,
anyone?

It might have been things I did
C Cmaj9 Fmaj9 G Dm7
But don't be unkind, it don't mean I'm blind
Am9 Em11
But after a thing or two
C Cmaj9 Fmaj9 G Dm7
I think of lying in bed, I shouldn't have said

You see it's all clear

>From the beginning
Am9 Em11
Well maybe I might have changed
C Cmaj9 F G Dm7
And not been so cruel, not been such a fool
Am9 Em11
But after what's done is done
C Cmaj9 F G Dm7
I just can't recall, it doesn't matter at all

You see it's all clear

I saw elp play this on tv and noticed the way lake plays the am9 chord. Although subtle, it sounds better than the way most people play it.
