Lucky

C         D/F#     Em
There's a man in a cutaway
C       D/F#          G
Buying drinks for the room
C       D/F#          Em
All the cheer raining down on the day
         C           D/F#          Em
Comes to nothing and leaves by the broom


[Verse 2]
C      D/F#              Em
On the streets named for presidents
C         D/F#        G
Where the kingfishers blew
C       D/F#                    Em
All the cornflowers sewn in the fence
         C           D/F#       G
Keep the memory from tearing in two


[Chorus]
                C
But if I should lose
                    G
I'd wake up feeling lucky
            D
If I should take a fall
                C
Or throw it all away
           A              G
I wouldn't mind lying beside you
    F          Em
The rest of my days


[Verse 3]
C                D/F#       Em
The storms came down out of Mackinaw
C      D/F#           G
As the weigh stations closed
C           D/F#     Em
There was a terrible darkness I saw
        C         D/F#        G
Pulling up on the side of the road


[Chorus]
                C
But if I should lose
                    G
I'd wake up feeling lucky
            D
If I should take a fall
                C
Or throw it all away
           A              G
I wouldn't mind lying beside you
               Em
The rest of my days


[Verse 4]
C       D/F#                 Em
So I'll drink to the wealthy man
C        D/F#         G
And I'll pray for the poor
C        D/F#      Em
And I'll hold onto you while I can
       C        D/F#       G
In the darkness just to be sure


[Chorus]
                 C
That if I should lose
                    G
I'll wake up feeling lucky
            D
If I should take a fall
                C
Or throw it all away
           A              G
I wouldn't mind lying beside you
    F           Em
The rest of my days
