B
Well I woke up this morning stumbled out of my rack
I opened up the paper to the page in the back
E
It only took a moment for my finger to find
B
My daily dose of destiny, under my sign
F#
My eyes just about popped out of my head
B [stop]
It said "the stars are stacked against you girl, get back in bed"
E B
I feel lucky, I feel lucky, yeah
F#
No Professor Doom gonna stand in my way
B [stop]
Mmmmm, I feel lucky today

Well I strolled down to the corner, gave my numbers to the clerk
The pot's eleven million so I called in sick to work
I bought a pack of Camels, a burrito and a Barq's
Crossed against the light, made a beeline for the park
The sky began to thunder, wind began to moan
I heard a voice above me saying, "girl, you better get back home"
But I feel lucky, oh oh oh, I feel lucky, yeah
No tropical depression gonna steal my sun away
Mmmmm, I feel lucky today

B [stop]
Now eleven million later, I was sitting at the bar
(A) B [stop]
I'd bought the house a double, and the waitress a new car
E [stop]
Dwight Yoakam's in the corner, trying to catch my eye
(A) B [stop]
Lyle Lovett's right beside me with his hand upon my thigh
(E) F# [stop]
The moral of this story, it's simple but it's true
B B7
Hey the stars might lie, but the numbers never do
I feel lucky, oh oh oh, I feel lucky, yeah
Hey Dwight, hey Lyle, boys, you don't have to fight
Hot dog, I'm feeling lucky tonight
I feel lucky, brrrrr, I feel lucky, yeah
Think I'll flip a coin, I'm a winner either way
Mmmmmm, I feel lucky today
