Sometimes I Get Lucky

Tom: D

 G  A  D


[Verse 1]
D                                  G
I stay out late most every night until closing time
A                                  G             D
Tryin’ to find a way to drink your mem’ry off my mind
    D                               G
And even if it goes just right, I’d never make a bet
    A                             D
But sometimes I get lucky and forget


[Chorus]
G               A                 D
Sometimes I can close my eyes and you’re not waiting there
G            A              D
Constantly reminding me how much you used to care
G                 A                      D              Bm
And losing you is one thing I guess I’ll always--------regret
      G               A             D
Cause sometimes I get lucky and forget


[Break]
  G  A  D


[Verse 2]
D                               G
Sweet Rose’ and burgundy just lead to scotch and rye
A                                  G             D
At times it hurts me so much I just hang my head and cry
    D                               G
No it ain’t been easy for me, I’m not over you yet
    A                             D
Cause sometimes I get lucky and forget


[Chorus]
G               A                 D
Sometimes I can close my eyes and you’re not waiting there
G            A              D
Constantly reminding me how much you used to care
G                 A                      D              Bm
And losing you is one thing I guess I’ll always--------regret
      G               A             D
Cause sometimes I get lucky and forget
