Lucky In Love

INTRO:  E  B -- 6x`s  THEN   B  E  B -- 2x`s 
 
VERSE: 
 
B                               E  B 
A betting fool, a gambling man 
B                               E  B 
No sooner up you`re down again 
B                               E  B 
Mama said you won`t get hurt, 
B                                          E  B 
Don`t play the cards, you won`t get burned 
        G 
But there`s a place where I still win, 
      A 
But there`s no money in this thing 
     G 
The game of hearts puts me in spades, 
     A 
The only game I got it made 
 
CHORUS: 
 
         D        G     G  B  A 
Oh, I`m lucky in love! 
 D                G             G  B  A 
Yes I`ve got the winning touch 
 D        G     G  B  A 
Lucky in love! 
 D                  G    G  B  A   ;    B  E  B - 2x`s 
Suddenly, I`m dangerous 
 
VERSE: 
 
I`m betting on a filly down at the track 
A natural-born winner, that`s a fact 
A hundred yards from the winning post 
The horse fell down, must seen a ghost 
But there`s a place where I still win 
That is still my sure-fire thing 
I will play the jack of spades 
You play the queen, I`ll play the knave 
 
CHORUS: 
 
Oh, I`m lucky in love! 
Yes, I`ve got the winning touch 
Lucky in love! 
Suddenly, I`m dangerous 
 
BREAK: 
 
C              A     C                      A 
I know it`s a mystery when the numbers come up 
C                       A 
`Cause mathematics is Greek to me 
C                     A                   B  ;  B  E  B - 4x`s 
But I`m lucky, I`m lucky, I`m lucky in love 
 
VERSE: 
 
Yeah, Las Vegas at night at the roulette wheel 
Yeah, Monte Carlo try to cut a deal 
Atlantic City, I lose at craps 
Back in London try to win in back 
And late at night I lay in bed 
With a pistol to my head 
Swear I couldn`t take no more 
And in she walks right through my door 
 
CHORUS: 
 
Oh, I`m lucky in love! 
When I think I`ve had enough 
Lucky in love! 
                        G  B  A  ;  D  A  G - 2x`s 
Yes I`ve got the winning touch       then  G  B  A

×VERSE: 
 
Yes I`m lucky, Yes I`m lucky 
Yes I`m lucky, yes I`m lucky 
Yes I`m lucky, yes I`m lucky 
Lucky with the ladies 
Thank God for the ladies 
Otherwise, I`d go, I`d go crazy 
How about a line of credit 
For say, ten thousand dollars? 
Eighteen on the red 
Put me, put me home to bed 
 
×VERSE: 
 
Yes I`m lucky, yes I`m lucky 
Yes I`m lucky, yes I`m lucky 
Yes I`m lucky, yes I`m lucky 
Lucky with the ladies 
I`m sitting here with a full house 
I just can`t believe I`ll lose out on this 
Okay! Okay! Your ten thousand and ten thousand more 
You want to raise me, you want to raise me? How about this? 
Twenty thousand and twenty thousand more 
Okay! You want to see me? Well I got, I got a full house 
What`s that? A royal flush? 
Well, ain`t that a bust, I`m broke!
