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

E n.c. E E E E

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

Now eleven million later, I was sitting at the bar
stop
I'd bought the house a double, and the waitress a new car
stop
Dwight Yoakam's in the corner, trying to catch my eye
stop
Lyle Lovett's right beside me with his hand upon my thigh
stostop
The moral of this story, it's simple but it's true
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

TAB:
(Don't forget the capo on the 7th fret.)
Play the E measures And the A measures
like this: like this:
^ . ^ . ^ . ^ . ^ . ^ . ^ . ^ .
I'm not sure about B. It might be x244xx and x264xx (like A), or it might
just be x244xx.
For the very beginning of the song, slide into the first E with 011xxx.
