Michael Penn - Lucky One Ukulele

Artist Michael Penn

Verse 1:
G                           G7
I'm sending out a call to arms
C                       D
G                         G7
To the sounding of alarms
C                            D
With all the bells and whistles

G                           G7
Took my prize, hung my plaque
C                       D
Pat our big collective back
G                           G7
And then got drunk on Cracker Jack
C                       D
And emailed my epistle


Chorus 1:
Em                          G 
Well, I must be the lucky one
        C                 G    D
The luckiest in luckydom
       Em                                G
Who reached the moon but wound up numb
          Cm       
Now that I've had my fun
C                          D   G
Here comes the millennium


Verse 2:
G                           G7
Knowing love every day
C                       D
My baby wants to be that way
G                           G7
But I can't bring myself to say
C                       D
How I can't hope for cryin'

G                           G7
Things got bad, things got worse
C                       D
I got loaded in a hearse
G                           G7
And all I needed was a nurse
C                       D
Believe me, I'm not lyin'


Repeat Chorus 1

Well, I must be the lucky one
        C                 G    D
The luckiest in luckydom
       Em                                G
Who reached the moon but wound up numb
Em                          G 
Well, I must be the lucky one
        C                 G    D
The luckiest in luckydom
       Em                                G
Who reached the moon but wound up numb
  Cm
Let's call this party done
C                         D    G
Here comes the millennium


Repeat Em G C G to End

Such a lucky one, such a lucky one
Such a lucky one, such a lucky one
Such a lucky one, such a lucky one
