[Verse]
D
new to town with a made up name
Bm
in the angel's city chasing fortune and fame
G D A
and the camera flashes 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 D
so overnight, you look like a 60s queen
A G Bm
another name goes up in lights
G A D
like diamonds in the sky...
[Chorus]
D
and they'll tell you now
A
you're the lucky one
G
yeah, they'll tell you now
A
you're the lucky one
D
but can you tell me now
A
you're the lucky one
G D
oh, oh, oh...
[Verse]
D
now it's big black cars and riviera views
Bm
and your lover in the foyer doesn't even know you
G D A
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 A
and all the young things line up to take your place
G Bm
another name goes up in lights
G A
you wonder if you'll make it out alive
[Chorus]
D
and they'll tell you now
A
you're the lucky one
G
yeah, they'll tell you now
A
you're the lucky one
D
but can you tell me now
A
you're the lucky one
G D A G
oh, oh, oh, oh, ooh, oh, oh
D A G
oh, ooh, oh, oh
[Verse]
D
it was a few years later I showed up here
Bm
and they still tell the legend of how you disappeared
G D A
how you took the money and your dignity and got the hell out
D
they say you bought a bunch of land somewhere
Bm
chose the Rose Garden over Madison Square
G D A
and it took some time, but I understand it now...
G Bm
cause now my name is up in lights
G A
but I think you got it right
[Chorus]
D
let me tell you now
A
you're the lucky one
G
let me tell you now
A
you're the lucky one
D
let me tell you now
A
you're the lucky one
G
oh, oh, oh...
D
let me tell you now
A
you're the lucky one
G
let me tell you now
A
you're the lucky one
D
let me tell you now
A
you're the lucky one
G D A G
oh, oh, oh, oh, oh....
