This is not meant to be absolutely complete, nor do I make any attempt
to display the rhythm used. This is merely a starting point. Most of
the song is here. Some of it is not. I have included times on the CD
to better show which parts I'm referring to. Enjoy!

B* B A
Worried sick my eyes are hurting
To rest my head I'd take a life
Outside the girls are dancing
'Cause when you're down it just don't seem right
Feeling second fiddle to a dead man
Up to my neck with your disregard
Like a beat dog that's walking on the broadway
No one wants to hear you when you're down
For chorus, use barre chords
C# B
Sister luck is screaming out
A
Somebody else's name
C# B
Sister luck is screaming out
A
Somebody else's name
REPEAT INTRO LEAD PART
A flip of a coin might make a head turn
No surprise, who sleeps
Held my hand over a candle
Flame burnin' but I never weep
Sister luck is screaming out
Somebody else's name
Sister luck is screaming out
Somebody else's name
What a shame
