(Intro)
[A]
(Verse 1)
[D]New to town with a made-up name
[A]In the angel's city, chasing fortune and fame
[G]And the camera flashes make it look like a [D]dream
You had it figured out since you were in school
[A]Everybody loves pretty, everybody loves cool
[G]So overnight, you look like a '60s queen
[D]Another name goes [A]up in lights
[G]Like diamonds in the sky
(Chorus)
[D]And they'll tell you now, you're the [A]lucky one
[D]Yeah, they'll tell you now, you're the [G]lucky one
[D]But can you tell me now you're the [A]lucky one?
[G]Oh, oh,[D] oh
(Verse 2)
[D]Now it's big black cars and Riviera views
[A]And your lover in the foyer doesn't even know you
[G]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
[A]'Cause you don't feel pretty, you just feel used
[G]And all the young things line up to take your place
[D]Another name goes [A]up in lights
[G]You wonder if you'll make it out alive
(Chorus)
[D]And they'll tell you now, you're the [A]lucky one
[D]Yeah, they'll tell you now, you're the [G]lucky one
[D]Can you tell me now you're the [A]lucky one?
[G]Oh, oh, oh, [D]oh-oh-oh-oh-oh, [G]oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-[D]oh-oh
(Verse 3)
[D]It was a few years later, I showed up here
[A]And they still tell the legend of how you disappeared
[G]How you took the money and your dignity and got the hell out
[D]They say you bought a bunch of land somewhere
[A]Chose the Rose Garden over Madison Square
[G]And it took some time, but I understand it now
[D]'Cause now my name is [A]up in lights
[G]But I think you got it right
(Chorus)
[D]Let me tell you now, you're the [A]lucky one
[D]Let me tell you now, you're the [G]lucky one
[D]Let me tell you now, you're the [A]lucky one
[G]Oh, oh, [D]oh
[D]Yeah, they'll tell you now, you're the [A]lucky one
[D]Yeah, they'll tell you now, you're the [G]lucky one
[D]Let me tell you now, you're the [A]lucky one
(Outro)
[G]Oh, oh, oh
Oh, [D]oh-oh, oh-oh
