Lucky Sometimes by Pokey LaFarge

From "Rock Bottom Rhapsody" (2020)

Intro

[Eb] [G#] [Bb] x2

Verse

[Eb] [G#m]

Waiting tables at the burger stand

[Eb] [G#m]

You were sitting alone

[G7] [Cm]

I came up for your order and asked you what you want

[Fm] [Bb] [Bb7]

You said "do you really wanna know?"

[Eb] [G#m]

Just got to town I didn’t have a friend, no,

[Eb] [G#m]

I didn't even have a car

[G7] [Cm]

Down at the three clubs I wrote you a poem

[Fm] [Bb] [Bb7]

And you bought the drinks at the bar

Chorus

N.C. [Eb]

Oh then you

[G#]

Fell in love with me

[Bb]

Yes you did

[Eb] [G#]

You took me to A from Z

[Bb]

Yes you did

[Eb] [D] [Db] [C7]

There was something you could see

[Cm] [G7]

I was broken, I was poor,

[Eb] [F7]

And you said I could be yours

[G#] [Bb] [Bb7]

Though I don't have a dime

[Fm] [Bb] [Eb]

Even bums get lucky sometimes

[Eb] [G#] [Bb] x2

Verse

[Eb] [G#m]

I have never been a hero

[Eb] [G#m]

I can't pretend to have a plan

[G7] [Cm]

No I just want to be a regular guy

[Fm] [Bb] [Bb7]

Does that mean I could be your man

[Eb] [G#m]

Not strong or fast, wasn’t good in school

[Eb] [G#m]

Yes when I sing I’m flat or sharp

[G7] [Cm]

Then you took your aim at me

[Fm] [Bb] [Bb7]

And you shot your arrow through my heart

Chorus

N.C. [Eb]

Oh when you

[G#]

Fell in love with me

[Bb]

Yes you did

[Eb] [G#]

You took me to A from Z

[Bb]

Yes you did

[Eb] [D] [Db] [C7]

There was something you could see

[Cm] [G7]

Oh I found my key

[Eb] [F7]

We’re in perfect harmony

[G#] [Bb] [Bb7]

With every verse and rhyme

[Fm] [Bb] [Eb]

Even bums get lucky sometimes

Instrumental

[Eb] [G#m] [Bb]

[Eb] [G#m] [Bb]

[Eb] [D] [Db] [C7]

[Post-Chorus]

[Cm] [G7]

Well I don’t deserve nothing

[Eb] [F7]

But sometimes you get something

[G#] [Bb]

Yeah just for hanging around

[Fm] [Bb] [Eb]

Even bums get lucky sometimes

[G#] [Bb] [Eb] [G#] [Bb]

Lucky sometimes

[Fm] [Bb]

Even bums get lucky

[Eb]

Sometimes
