              Intro:C    Am
 
                       C              Am
This is a story about a girl named Lucky
 
C              Am
Early morning, she wakes up 
C                          Am
Knock, knock, knock on the door 
C                     Am
It's time for makeup, perfect smile 
     C                       Am
It's you they're all waiting for 
C          Am
"Isn't she lovely
     F         G
This Hollywood girl?" 
 
         C
And they say she's so lucky
Am
She's a star 
        F                      G      E
But she cry, cry, cries in her lonely heart, thinking 
C                  Am           
If there's nothing missing in my life 
     F            G
Then why do these tears come at night 
 
C                 Am
Lost in an image, in a dream 
    C                                Am
But there's no one there to wake her up 
        C                                   G          
And the world is spinning, and she keeps on winning 
    Am                           F
But tell me what happens when it stops? 
C          Am
"Isn't she lovely
     F         G
This Hollywood girl?"
 
 
         C
And they say she's so lucky
Am
She's a star 
        F                      G      E
But she cry, cry, cries in her lonely heart, thinking 
Am                 C
If there's nothing missing in my life 
     F            G                          C
Then why do these tears come at night 
 
Am                                                C
"Best actress, and the winner is Lucky!"
Am                                      
"I'm Roger Johnson for Pop News standing outside the arena waiting for Lucky" 
"Oh my god!  Here she comes!" 
 
F         G      Am       F         G
Isn't she love - ly, this Hollywood girl? 
D         Bm         G            A
She is so lucky, but why does she cry? 
D          Bm      G
If there's nothing missing in her life 
       A
Why do tears come at night? 
 
         D
And they say she's so lucky
Bm
She's a star 
        G                      A      F#
But she cry, cry, cries in her lonely heart, thinking 
D                  Bm
If there's nothing missing in my life 
     G            A
Then why do these tears come at night
         D                      Bm
And they say she's so lucky
        G                      A      F#
But she cry, cry, cries in her lonely heart, thinking 
Bm                 D
If there's nothing missing in my life 
     G            A
Then why do these tears come at night
