Chords

[Intro] A A [Verse 1]
        A
Well, I woke up this morning,

         A
stumbled out of my rack

  A
I opened up the paper

       A
to the page in the back

   D
It only took a minute for my finger to find

   A
My daily dose of destiny, under my sign

   E
My eyes just about popped out of my head

              A
It said, "The stars are stacked against you girl,
get back in bed" [Chorus]
       D             A
I feel lucky, I feel lucky, yeah

E
No Professor Doom going to stand in my way

A
Mmm, I feel lucky today
[Break] A A [Verse 2]
        A
Well, I strolled down to the corner,

        A
gave my numbers to the clerk

    A
The pot's eleven million

     A
so I called in sick to work

  D
I bought a pack of Camels,

  D
a burrito and a Barq's

A
Crossed against the light,

       A
made a beeline for the park

    E
The sky began to thunder,

E
wind began to moan

  A
I heard a voice above me saying,
"Girl, you better get back home" [Chorus]
           D
But I feel lucky, oh, oh, oh,

       A
I feel lucky, yeah

   E
No tropical depression going to steal my sun away

A
Mmm, I feel lucky today
[Chorus Solo] D A E A E [Verse 3]
    A
Now eleven million later,

      A
I was sitting at the bar

    A
I'd bought the house a double

       A
and the waitress, a new car

       D
Dwight Yoakam's in the corner

D
trying to catch my eye

     A
Lyle Lovett's right beside me

         A
with his hand upon my thigh

    E
The moral of this story,

     E
it's simple but it's true

        A           A/C
Hey the stars might lie

        A/C#          A/D
but the numbers never do
[Chorus]
       D
I feel lucky, oh, oh, oh

       A
I feel lucky, yeah

    E
Hey Dwight, hey Lyle, boys, you don't have to fight

A
 Hot dog, I'm feeling lucky tonight

       D
I feel lucky, brrrrrrrrrr,

       A
I feel lucky, yeah

E
Think I'll flip a coin, I'm a winner either way

A
Mmm, I feel lucky today
