1. Lady Luck, here I am on time,

2. Lady Luck, why don‘t you pull up a chair,
G D
bring
your shine right wisdom, darlin’, over here.
D Em
Your gealic
humor and your pious smile,
G D
all the
cats will be laughing tonight.

3. Lady Luck, ain‘t you the fickle kind ?
G D
Why are some folks lucky while
the rest are trying ?
D
Em
You keep on playing, it‘s
still a mystery,
G D
you‘re
laced with a touch of inconsistency.
G D
So why don‘t you give us all a
break,
G Bm - A
make
us all rich, healthy and fine ?
D Em
Five months holidays and a
four hour week,
G
D
and a
horse that wins all the time. Good luck !

4. Lady Luck, hear the mandolins,
G D
kinda makes you wonder how it might have been.
D Em G D
Here go all
the funny place I‘ve got, back on the street again.
D Em
Lady Luck, yeah, it‘s late, I
know,
G D
allow
me to buy you one more folderol.
D
Em
Tell me something I‘ve been
longing to hear,
G D
it‘s gotta
get better next year.
G D
‘Cause I‘ve seen some rainy
days,
G Bm
my
wedding suits all frayed and torn.
G D
But now the sun comes shining
through,
G A
I‘ve cried in my beer too
long.
