------------------------------------------------------------------------------- TAKE A PEBBLE - Emerson Lake & Palmer ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Tabbed by: Viktor L. E-mail: viktorL@hotmail.fr ***This tab is of the instrumental part in the middle of the song*** I wasn't satisfied with the existing tabs of this great song so I made my own, and after listens and re-listens, I believe this is an accurate transcription. Nonetheless, all credit to Greg Lake whose reputation as a great guitarist remains in spite of Emerson's keyboard, through songs like this one...
