Author/Artist: Styx Title: Lady Album: Styx II Transcribed by: J. Chitty Email: [email protected] An awesome song. After I tab out "The Best of Times", I will tab out Lady '95, for those of you who don't have the original recording, because Lady '95 is a little different, I think. NEXT SONG: The Best Of Times - Styx First guitar comes in at {0:44} Riff A e|-10--10----10--10----10--10----10--10----10----10----| B|-x---x-----x---x-----x---x-----x---x-----x-----x-----|
