JUST MY LUCK (Kim Richey & Angelo)
———————————-
[Actually in B; capo 4. Each chord is half a measure.]
[The measures that say «D*» are actually either D-Dsus4-D-Dsus4 or
D-Dsus4-Dsus4-Dsus4 (the latter more in the intro). That D part leads
into either G (320033) or C(9) (x32033). If you’ve heard the song,
you know which part that is.]
[It sounds like the acoustic guitar is probably a 12-string, but with
the capo on 4, it sounds jangly enough on a 6-string.]

I got tired of losing, so I covered my tracks
G D* C(9) D* Em D/F# G D*
I left love behind me, it was a thing of the past
G D* C(9) D* G D* C(9) D*
And I got back on my feet again with something new in my stride
G D* C(9) D* Em D/F# G G
Well I was just telling my girlfriend yesterday how I was doing all right
C G D D C D G G
I was living the good life, none of that silly love stuff
C D G Em C D G D*
Then I went and fell for you, ain’t that just my luck
G D* C(9) D* G D* C(9) D*
[instrumental]
I got a house in the country, I got a garden that grows
And I got nobody telling me, «hey, turn down that radio»
I’ve made my life real simple, a couple cats and me
I don’t get bored and lonely as long as there’s something on TV
I was living the good life, none of that silly love stuff
Then I went and fell for you, ain’t that just my luck
Cmaj7 [pause 2 measures] Em [pause 2 measures]
Is it just my luck or a twist of fate
A A A A C C D D
I was ready to close the book, then you went and turned the page

Yeah I was living the good life, none of that silly love stuff
Then I went and fell for you, ain’t that just my luck
I was living the good life, none of that silly love stuff
Then I went and fell for you, ain’t that just my luck
Em D/F# G G C D G G.
Ain’t that just my luck, ain’t that just my luck
