Intro: E


E
 New to town with a made up name 
        Dbm
 In the angel city chasing fortune and fame
          A                                   E
 And the camera flashes make it look like a dream


E
 You had it figured out since you were in school
     Dbm
 Everybody loves pretty everybody loves cool
    A                                    E      B
 So overnight you look like a sixties' queen


          A
 Another name goes up in lights
                        B
 Like diamonds in the sky


  E                                   
 And they'll tell you now 
             B
 You're the lucky one
  A
 Yeah they'll tell you now 

 You're the lucky one
      E 
 But can you tell me now 
             B         A           E
 You're the lucky one  oh oh ohhh

 
           E
 Now it's big black cars and Riviera views
          Dbm
 And your lover in the foyer doesn't even know you
           A                                         E     B
 And your secrets end up splashed on the news front page


           E
 And they tell you that you're lucky

 But you're so confused
           Dbm
 Cause you don't feel pretty you just feel used
      A                                          E      B
 And all the young things line up to take your place


          A
 Another name goes up in lights
                                    B
 You wonder if you'll make it out alive

 
  E                                   
 And they'll tell you now 
             B
 You're the lucky one
  A
 Yeah they'll tell you now 

 You're the lucky one
      E 
 But can you tell me now 
             B         A           
 You're the lucky one  oh oh ohhh

           E
 It was a few years later I showed up here
          Dbm
 And they still tell the legend of how you disappeared
           A                                                E    B
 How they took the money and your dignity and got the hell out


E
 They say you bought a bunch of land somewhere
         Dbm
 Chose the Rose Garden over Madison Square
         A                                  E    B
 And it took some time but I understand it now
 

               A
 Cause now my name is up in lights
                         B
 But I think you got it right


  E                                   
 Let me tell you now 
             B
 You're the lucky one
  A
 Let me tell you now 

 You're the lucky one
  E 
 Let me tell you now 
             B         A           
 You're the lucky one  oh oh ohhh


  E                                   
 Yeah they'll tell you now 
             B
 You're the lucky one
  A
 Yeah they'll tell you now 

 You're the lucky one
      E 
 But can you tell me now 
             B         A           E     B     A
