The Lucky One [C] - Alison Krauss
C
You're the lucky one so I’ve been told
G
Free as the wind blowing down the road
C
Loved by many, hated by none
F
I’d say you were lucky, cause I know what what you’ve done
C
Not a care in the world, not a worry in sight
G
Everything’s gonna be alright
F C
Cause you’re the lucky one, you’re the lucky one.
C
You’re the lucky one always having fun
G
Jack of all trades and master of none
C
You look at the world with a smiling eye
F
And laugh at the devil as his train rolls by
C
Give you a song and a one night stand
G
You’ll be looking at a happy man
F C
Cause you’re the lucky one, you’re the lucky one.
|[Chorus]
|
| F
|Well I’m blessed I guess
| C
|By never knowing which road you’re choosing
| F C
|To you the next best thing to playing and winning
| Dm
|Is playing and losing.
C
You’re the lucky one, I know that now
G
Don’t ask me why, when, where or how
C
You look at the world through a smiling eye
F
And you laugh at the devil as his train rolls by
C
Give you a song and a one night stand
G
You’ll be looking at a happy man
F C
Cause your the lucky one, you’re the lucky one.
[Chorus]
C
You’re the lucky one I know that now
G
Dont ask me why, when, where or how
C
Wherever you’re at that’s where you’ll be
F
And you can bet your luck won’t follow me
C
Give you a song and a one night stand
G
You’ll be looking at a happy man
F C
Cause you’re the lucky one, you’re the lucky one.
F C G C
Cause you’re the lucky one, yeah the lucky one.
