[Bbmaj7]Luck fell in the [Ebmaj7]right place for me
The [Bbmaj7]day you happened [Eb/F]to come by.
You [Bbmaj7]caught me feeling [Ebmaj7]all was useless,
And [Bbmaj7]left me feeling [Eb/F]ten feet high.
[Dbmaj7] Now nothing again can be quite the [Cm7]same.
[Dbmaj7] You gather my fears, and threw them [Fm7]away.[Eb/F]
Luck dropped in, just at the right time;
The time when I felt most alone.
All my dreams had seemed to vanish.
Now my nightmares have upped and gone.
I'm not scared of farewells. Nothing's the same twice.
I stride through the day, and float through the night.
[Ebmaj7]How much [Dm7]choice do we [Gm7]have in [Ab/Bb]this?
[Ebmaj7]Like some al[Dmaj7]mighty hand, [Gm7]smashing your life into [Ab/Bb]pieces,
[Cm7] One day you're [Dm7]washed and drowned
And the [Ebmaj7]next day you're put [Eb/F]back on the land.
Bbmaj7 Ebmaj7 Bbmaj7 Eb/F (x2)
Now nothing again can be quite the same.
I gather my fears and I throw them away.
[Bbmaj7]Luck, when you [Ebmaj7]hold me closely.
[Bbmaj7]Ooh, feels like [Eb]summertime.
[Bbmaj7]Luck, when you [Ebmaj7]hold my hand.
[Bbmaj7]I want it [Eb/F]all the time.
Luck, in your country kisses.
Ooh, I love your outlook.
Luck, in your hills and valleys.
Go on talking, my babbling brook.
