Chords

This tab is made of a version of John playing this live from a DVD I rented years ago. This is exactly how he played it that day. He plays it in a lot of different keys so, have a go at moving the capo around to match the version you're used to. Whether you choose to fingerpick or strum, these chords sound great and the song is a gem. More people should hear this one that's why I tabbed it out. [Verse 1]
C                                       F
Today I walked down the street I use to wander

               C                      G
Yeah, shook my head and made myself a bet

                    C                           F
There was all these things that I don't think I remember

         C         G       C
Hey, How lucky can one man get.
[Verse 2]
             C                              F
I bronzed my shoes and hung from a rearview mirror

           C                              G
Bronzed admiration in the blind spot of regret

                    C                           F
There was all these things that I don't think I remember

         C         G       C
Hey, How lucky can one man get.
[Verse 3]
        C                               F
Today I walked down the street I use to wander

                   C                    G
Yeah, scratched my head and lit my cigarette

                          C                           F
Well, There was all these things that I don't think I remember

         C         G       C
Hey, How lucky can one man get.
[Outro]
F        C         G       C
