Tom: Cm
Eb G#m
Waiting tables at the burger stand
Eb G#m
You were sitting alone
G7 Cm
I came up for your order and asked you what you want
Fm Bb Bb7
You said "do you really wanna know?"
Eb G#m
Just got to town I didn’t have a friend, no,
Eb G#m
I didn't even have a car
G7 Cm
Down at the three clubs I wrote you a poem
Fm Bb Bb7
And you bought the drinks at the bar
[Chorus]
N.C. Eb
Oh then you
G#
Fell in love with me
Bb
Yes you did
Eb G#
You took me to A from Z
Bb
Yes you did
Eb D Db C7
There was something you could see
Cm G7
I was broken, I was poor,
Eb F7
And you said I could be yours
G# Bb Bb7
Though I don't have a dime
Fm Bb Eb
Even bums get lucky sometimes
Eb G# Bb x2
[Verse]
Eb G#m
I have never been a hero
Eb G#m
I can't pretend to have a plan
G7 Cm
No I just want to be a regular guy
Fm Bb Bb7
Does that mean I could be your man
Eb G#m
Not strong or fast, wasn’t good in school
Eb G#m
Yes when I sing I’m flat or sharp
G7 Cm
Then you took your aim at me
Fm Bb Bb7
And you shot your arrow through my heart
[Chorus]
N.C. Eb
Oh when you
G#
Fell in love with me
Bb
Yes you did
Eb G#
You took me to A from Z
Bb
Yes you did
Eb D Db C7
There was something you could see
Cm G7
Oh I found my key
Eb F7
We’re in perfect harmony
G# Bb Bb7
With every verse and rhyme
Fm Bb Eb
Even bums get lucky sometimes
[Instrumental]
Eb G#m Bb
Eb G#m Bb
Eb D Db C7
[Post-Chorus]
Cm G7
Well I don’t deserve nothing
Eb F7
But sometimes you get something
G# Bb
Yeah just for hanging around
Fm Bb Eb
Even bums get lucky sometimes
G# Bb Eb G# Bb
Lucky sometimes
Fm Bb
Even bums get lucky
Eb
Sometimes
