JUST MY LUCK (Kim Richey & Angelo)
----------------------------------
[Actually in B; capo 4.  Each chord is half a measure.]
[The measures that say "D*" are actually either D-Dsus4-D-Dsus4 or
 D-Dsus4-Dsus4-Dsus4 (the latter more in the intro).  That D part leads
 into either G (320033) or C(9) (x32033).  If you've heard the song,
 you know which part that is.]
[It sounds like the acoustic guitar is probably a 12-string, but with
 the capo on 4, it sounds jangly enough on a 6-string.]

  I got tired of losing,         so I covered my tracks
G        D*      C(9)    D*    Em         D/F#          G    D*
  I left love behind me,         it was a thing of the past
G          D*        C(9)    D*    G                D*        C(9)   D*
  And I got back on my feet again    with something new in my stride
G                 D*          C(9)       D*       Em          D/F#      G    G
  Well I was just telling my girlfriend yesterday   how I was doing all right

C       G           D        D    C          D       G        G
  I was living the good life,   none of that silly love stuff
C        D         G        Em            C    D    G   D*
  Then I went and fell for you, ain't that just my luck

G   D*  C(9)  D*     G   D*  C(9)  D*
[instrumental]

I got a house in the country, I got a garden that grows
And I got nobody telling me, "hey, turn down that radio"
I've made my life real simple, a couple cats and me
I don't get bored and lonely as long as there's something on TV

I was living the good life, none of that silly love stuff
Then I went and fell for you, ain't that just my luck

      Cmaj7 [pause 2 measures]     Em [pause 2 measures]
Is it just my luck            or a twist of fate
              A    A      A         A     C         C       D    D
I was ready to close the book, then you went and turned the page

G   D   C(9)  D      G   D   C(9)  D

G   D   C(9)  D      G   C(9)  G   G
[slide guitar solo]

Yeah I was living the good life, none of that silly love stuff
Then I went and fell for you, ain't that just my luck

I was living the good life, none of that silly love stuff
Then I went and fell for you, ain't that just my luck

           Em   D/F#  G   G        C    D    G    G.
Ain't that just my luck, ain't that just my luck
