[Verse]
        G                            Bm
Well my time went so quickly, I went lickety-splitly

C         D         G
Out to my ol’ fifty-five

     G                   Bm
As I pulled away slowly, feelin' so holy

    C                     D   D7
God knows I was feelin’ alive
[Chorus]
                 G     D      C   D7
     And now the sun's comin' up

         G           D    C     D7
     I'm ridin' with Lady Luck

     G        D         C      Bm
     Freeway, cars, and trucks 

     Am       D         G     Em
     Stars beginning to fade 

     Am     D           G     Em
     And I lead the parade

     Am     D           Em              G
     Just a-wishin' I'd stayed a little longer

     A7                               C                D7
     Oh Lord let me tell you that the feelin's gettin' stronger.
[Verse]
       G                   Bm
And at six in the mornin', gave me no warnin'

  C      D        G
I had to be on my way

             G                                Bm
Well there’s trucks all a-passin' me, and the lights all a-flashin'

    C                        D      D7
I'm on my way home from your place.
[Chorus]
                 G     D      C   D7
     And now the sun's comin' up

         G           D    C     D7
     I'm ridin' with Lady Luck

     G        D         C      Bm
     Freeway, cars, and trucks 

     Am       D         G     Em
     Stars beginning to fade 

     Am     D           G     Em
     And I lead the parade

     Am     D           Em              G
     Just a-wishin' I'd stayed a little longer

     A7                               C                D7
     Oh Lord let me tell you that the feelin's gettin' stronger.

        G                            Bm
