Intro
Bb / Bb / Gm / F x2
Bb It took so long to get me back on my feet Bb It takes so long to find the words and the beat
And Charlie's waiting on the end of the phone
Gm F To hear you call on him to try to recapture Bb But them old records won't be saving your soul Bb And them feelings got the reasons you know
That you've forgotten somewhere
Gm Riding a train to place F You are out in the cold cold Gm Cm F And it feels like all you'd have to do is step outside Gm Cm Stop pacing around and waiting for some moment Bb F That might never arrive Bb Gm But you're never gonna find it Eb Like when you were young Eb F And everybody used to call you lucky
Pre-Verse
Bb / Bb
Bb Nothing feels right in the wintery cold Bb Steam, heat, clang, and the dark at your door
All the other rooms are a party tonight
Gm F And you never got an invitation Bb And you feel in your bones, steady aching some more Bb Twenty five years gone just an hour ago
Momma never told me there'd be days like these
G F Until it was much too late to recover Gm Cm F And it feels like all you'd have to do is step outside Gm Cm Bb F Stop pacing around and waiting for some moment that might never arrive Bb Gm But you're never gonna find it Em Bb When your knees got so weak Bb Gm But it's right here in case you need it Eb Like when you were young Bb F And everybody used to call you lucky Eb When you were young Bb F And everybody used to call you lucky Gm Cm F But it feels like you just might explode inside Gm You've been pacing around and waiting Cm Bb F For some moment that might never arrive at all Bb Gm F What you don't have, you don't need it anymore Bb Gm F Bb What you don't have, you don't need it anymore Bb Gm But you're never gonna find it Eb Bb F When your knees got so weak Bb Gm And it's right here in case you need it Eb Like when you were young Bb F And everybody used to call you lucky
When you were young
And everybody used to call you lucky
If you're anywhere in Manhattan
In the next eight days or so
Let me know
Speak soon, stay lucky.
