D
New to town with a made up name,
Bm
In the Angel city,
Chasing fortune and fame,
G
And the camera flashes,
D
Make it look like a dream,
D
You had it figured out since you were in school,
Bm
Everybody loves pretty,
Everybody loves cool,
G
So overnight,
D
You look like a sixties’ queen,
G
Another name goes up in lights,
A
Like diamonds in the sky,
D
And they’ll tell ya now,
A
You’re the lucky one,
G
Yeah they’ll tell ya now,
You’re the lucky one,
D
But can you tell me now,
A G – D
You’re the lucky one,
D
Now it’s big black cars,
And riviera views,
Bm
And your lover in the foyer,
Doesn’t even know you,
G D
And your secrets end up splashed on the news front page,
D
And they tell you that you’re lucky,
But you’re so confused,
Bm
Cause you don’t feel pretty,
You just feel used,
G D
And all the young things line up to take your place,
G
Another name goes up in lights,
D A
You wonder if you’ll make it out alive,
D
And they’ll tell ya now,
A
You’re the lucky one,
G
Yeah they’ll tell ya now,
You’re the lucky one,
D
But can you tell me now,
A G
You’re the lucky one,
D – A – G
Oh, oh, oh,
D – A – G
Oh, oh, oh.
D
It was a few years later,
I showed up here,
Bm
And they still tell the legend of how you disappeared,
G
How you took the money and your dignity,
D
And got the hell out,
D
They say you bought a bunch of land somewhere,
Bm
Chose the rose garden over Madison Square,
G
And it took some time,
D
But I understand it now,
G
Cause now my name is up in lights,
A
But I think you got it right,
D
Let me tell ya now,
A
You’re the lucky one,
G
Let me tell ya now,
You’re the lucky one,
D
Let me tell you now,
A G
You’re the lucky one,
D
Yeah they’ll tell ya now,
A
You’re the lucky one,
G
Yeah they’ll tell ya now,
You’re the lucky one,
D
Let me tell you now,
A G
You’re the lucky one,
D – A – G
Oh, oh, oh.
