Album: "Carousel One" (2015) [Intro] G [Verse 1]
G                                    C            G
Seems like you've been dining on the remix of the day

    G                                 C              G
But with a song in mind I am sure the DJ is bound to play

  D                                 C                          G  C  G
A song for Sunday drivers who, like us, could use some kind of sound

             D
She my lucky penny

                         G
When I ain't got a lousy dime
[Verse 2]
     G                                C                   G
Well she's the one beside me when the world ain't on it's time

  G                                   C               G
I need a love to hide me when there's nowhere left to hide

   D                         C                        G  C  G
No matter how I try I find myself down on my luck sometimes

             D
She my lucky penny

                         G
When I ain't got a lousy dime, ma ma ma ma, ma ma ma ma ma
[Chorus]
F  Am
   She's my silver and gold 

Eb Gm                       C
   She got a hold of me, it lingers

F  Am
   When that sliver of hope

Eb  Gm                    D7
    Gets pulled out of my finger
[Solo] G C G (x2) D C G C G
             D
She my lucky penny

                         G
When I ain't got a lousy dime
[Chorus]
F  Am
   Tried to give up the ghost

Eb Gm                        C
   It's that hold on me that lingers

F  Am
   Go from pillar to post

Eb Gm                       D7
   Slip beneath that rose within her
[Verse 3]
G                               C              G
See the sunlight shining on the remains of the day

G                              C                  G
Keep a song in my love, to the tear stains on the way

  D                                 C                        G  C  G
A song for two hitchikers who, like us, could use a lift sometimes

             D
She my lucky penny

                         G
When I ain't got a lousy dime

                D
I bet my bottom dollar

                         G
When I ain't got a lousy dime, ma ma ma ma, ma ma ma ma ma, ma ma ma ma ma, ma ma ma ma ma
[Outro] G
