[Intro]
G G D G
[Verse 1]
G
Once upon a way back when
G
Misery was my best friend
D
Always running from a misspent youth
G C G
Cold and empty as a pay phone booth
G
I might have known a girl or two
G
But nothing even close to you
D
Anyone with eyes could see
G
I’d had about enough of me
[Chorus]
C G C D
How many tiiiimes have - I heard myself say
G
If I hadn’t got lucky - if I hadn’t had you on my side
D G
I wouldn’t be standing here today
[Verse 2]
G
Before you came into my world
G
I just couldn’t get my flag unfurled
D
Any wind to find my sail
G C G
Was moving me to no avail
G
The thing about the man I was
G
Lonely is as lonely does
D
Every day a blinding blur
G
That was just the ways things were
[Chorus]
C G C D
How many tiiiimes have - I heard myself say
G
If I hadn’t got lucky - if I hadn’t had you on my side
D G
I wouldn’t be standing here today
[Break]
G G D G
G G D G
[Bridge]
D G
You never did try to tie me down
D G G#
And every last time I came unwound
A A7
You didn’t try to tame or shame or frame or game or try to lay blame
D D7
Whenever I was deep in doubt
G D
You let me find my own way out
[Verse 3]
G
This is what it comes down to
G
I learned to be myself with you
D
Now and then I feel so good
G C G
I could learn to live in Hollywood
G G
It’s not like we can change the world
G
We're just another boy and girl
D
Growing old together on Sunday
G
Going back to work on Monday
[Chorus]
C G C D
How many tiiiimes have - I heard myself say
G
If I hadn’t got lucky - if I hadn’t had you on my side
D G
I wouldn’t be standing here today
[Outro]
G
If I hadn’t got lucky - if I hadn’t had you on my side
D G
I wouldn’t be standing here today
