The Gaslight Anthem – Stay Lucky (Guitar)

C
It took so long to get me back on my feet

C
It takes so long to find the words and the beat

C
And Charlie's waiting on the end of the phone

             Am                     G 
To hear you call on him to try to recapture

C
But them old records won't be saving your soul

C
And them feelings died for reasons you know

C
That you've forgotten somewhere riding a train 

      Am                       G
To a place you bought out in BaCoCa

        Am                                         Dm   G
And it feels like all you'd have to do is step outside

     Am                                 Dm
Stop pacing around and waiting for some moment

      C            G
That might never arrive

            C           Am            
But you're never gonna find it

                    F
Like when you were young

         C                      G
And everybody used to call you lucky

C
Nothing feels right in the wintery cold

C
Steam, heat, clang, and the dark at your door

C
All the other rooms are a party tonight

         Am              G
And you never got an invitation

C
And you feel it in your bones Steady aching some more

C
Twenty five years gone just an hour ago

C
Momma never told me there'd be days like these

              Am                G
Until it was much too late to recover

        Am                                        Dm   G
And it feels like all you'd have to do is step outside

     Am                                 Dm
Stop pacing around and waiting for some moment

      C            G
That might never arrive

            C           Am
But you're never gonna find it

           F           C  G
When your knees got so weak

          C                      Am
But it's right here in case you need it

                    F
Like when you were young

          C                     G
And everybody used to call you lucky

               F
When you were young

          C                      G
And everybody used to call you lucky

        Am                                 Dm   G
But it feels like you just might explode inside

             Am
You've been pacing around and waiting

          Dm          C           G         F
For some moment that might never arrive at all

          Am                    G          F
What you don't have, you don't need it anymore

          Am                    G          F    G
What you don't have, you don't need it anymore

            C           Am
But you're never gonna find it

           F           C  G
When your knees got so weak

          C                      Am
And it's right here in case you need it

                    F
Like when you were young

          C                     G
And everybody used to call you lucky

               F
When you were young

          C                     G
And everybody used to call you lucky

           C
If you're anywhere in Manhattan, in the next eight days or so

        C
