Ben Folds – The Luckiest (Ukulele)

D        A            D                 G
I don't get many things right the first time

   D            Bm          C  C 
In fact, I am told that a lot

         A               A/C# 
Now I know all the wrong turns,

       D                 G                      D        Bm       F#m  A
The stumbles and falls brought me here

Bm            G            Bm
And where was I before the day

                E                    A
That I first saw your lovely face

      F#m          G  G
Now I see it every day

       D  A
And I know

       D  A 
That I am

G D-A       D             A
I am the luckiest

           D          A
What if I'd been born

D                 G
Fifty years before you

      D
In a house

           Bm                    C   C
On the street where you live

           A          A/C#
Maybe I'd be outside

           D                     G
As you passed on your bike

            D          Bm      F#m     A
Would I know?

Bm          G             Bm
And in a wide see of eyes

         E         A          F#m        G   Gsus2   G
I see one pair I recognize

      D   A
And I know

        D  A 
That I am

G D-A       D             A
I am the luckiest

Em                                   Bm
I love you more than I have

     Bm                     D      G    D   A
Ever found a way to say to you

        D
Next door

                A
There's an old man

       D               G
Who lived to his nineties

             D                Bm              C     C
And one day, passed away in his sleep

            A             A/C#
And his wife, she stayed

          D            G                         D   Bm  F#m  A 
For a couple of days and passed away

Bm         G
I'm sorry, I know that's a 

Bm                  E                  A
Strange way to tell you that I know

       F#m      G  G
We belong

       D A
That I know

        D  A 
That I am

G D-A         Bm       F#m    G       D     A     D
I am the luckiest
