The Lucky One
Standard Tuning
No Capo
E C#m
New to town with a made up name in the angel city,
Chasing fortune and fame.
A E
And the camera flashes, make it look like a dream.
E C#m
You had it figured out since you were in school.
Everybody loves pretty, everybody loves cool.
A E
So overnight you look like a sixties’ queen.
A
Another name goes up in lights, like diamonds in the sky.
E B
And they’ll tell you now, you’re the lucky one.
C#m A
Yeah, they’ll tell you now, you’re the lucky one.
E B A
But can you tell me now, you’re the lucky one.

E
Now it’s big black cars, and Riviera views,
C#m
And your lover in the foyer doesn’t even know you
A E
And your secrets end up splashed on the news front page.
E
And they tell you that you’re lucky.
But you’re so confused,
C#m
Cause you don’t feel pretty, you just feel used.
A E
And all the young things line up to take your place.
A
Another name goes up in lights. You wonder if you’ll make it out alive.
E B
And they’ll tell you now, you’re the lucky one.
C#m A
Yeah, they’ll tell you now, you’re the lucky one.
E B A
Can you tell me now, you’re the lucky one, oh, oh, oh.
E
It was a few years later, I showed up here.
C#m
And they still tell the legend of how you disappeared,
A E
How you took the money and your dignity, and got the hell out.
E
They say you bought a bunch of land somewhere,
C#m
Chose the Rose Garden over Madison Square,
A E
And it took some time, but I understand it now.
A
‘Cause now my name is up in lights, but I think you got it right,
E B
Let me tell you now, you’re the lucky one.
C#m A
Let me tell you now, you’re the lucky one.
E B A
Let me tell you now, you’re the lucky one, oh, oh, oh.
E B
And they’ll tell you now, you’re the lucky one.
C#m A
Yeah, they’ll tell you now, you’re the lucky one.
E B A
And they’ll tell you now, you’re the lucky one, oh, oh, oh.
E
Oh, whoa, oh, oh.
