INTRO 
Verse 1 
-------- 
           Bb                                  
You're the lucky one so I've been told  
F                     
 Free as the wind blowin' down the road  
Ab 
Loved by many, hated by none  
    Eb                  
I'd say you were lucky 'cause I know what you've done  
      Bb                                
Not a care in the world, not a worry in sight  
F                                                 Eb         Bb 
 Everything is gonna be alright 'cause you're the lucky one  
Verse 2

You're the lucky one, always havin' fun  
  F                  
A jack-of-all-trades, a master of none  
    Ab 
You look at the world with a smilin' eye  
    Eb 
And laugh at the devil as his train rolls by  
Bb 
Give you a song and a one-night stand  
F                                                   Eb        Bb 
 You'll be lookin' at a happy man 'cause you're the lucky one  
Chorus 
------- 
            Cm 
Well you're blessed I guess  
          F 
For never knowin' which road you're choosin'  
           Cm 
To you the next best thing  
               F          F#aug       Gm 
To playin' and winnin' is playin' and losin'  
Verse 3 
-------- 
           Bb                     
You're the lucky one, I know that now  
      F 
Don't ask you why, when, where, or how  
    Ab6        
You look at the world through your smilin' eye  
    Eb                            
And laugh at the devil as his train rolls by  
Bb                             
Give you a song and a one-night stand  
F                                                   Eb        Bb 
 You'll be lookin' at a happy man 'cause you're the lucky one

No matter where you're at it's where you'll be

You can bet your luck won't follow me
