***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...

Enjoy
