Get lucky (video)

G - C (4x)

G

1. I am better with my muscles than I am with my mouth,

C G

I work the fair grounds in the summer or go pick fruit down south.

G

And when I feel them chilly winds, where the weather goes I'll follow,

G7 C G

pack up my travelling things, go with the swallows,

D - D7 G - C

and I might get lucky now and then, you win some,

Am - C G - C

I might get lucky now and then, you win some.

+ G - C (3x)

G

2. I wake up every morning, keep an eye on what I spend,

C G

got to think about eating, got to think about paying the rent.

G

I always think it's funny, it gets me every time,

G7 C - G

and what about happiness for money? Tell it to the breadline.

D - D7 G - C

But you might get lucky now and then, you win some,

Am - C G - C - G

you might get lucky now and then, yeah, you win some.

Now I'm a rambling through this meadow, happy as a man can be,

C G - D

think I'll just lay me down under this old tree.

On and on we go through this old world a shuffling,

if you've got a truffle dog, you can go truffling.

D - D7 G - C

And you might get lucky now and then, you win some,

Am - C G - C

you might get lucky now and then, yeah, you win some.
