AIMEE MANN - (BELIEVED YOU WERE) LUCKY lyrics

rate me

Capo 1: F maps as E

Note: This is the way I've seen Aimee play it in concert (well, in E - the

recording is in F --- Me, I play it in A with alternate fingers

e.g., A = X07650 or X07600; D = XX0770 and F#m as 044200 - well

you get the idea...)

*** Intro:

E | E

*** Verse 1:

E

So I guess I'll give it up

E

yeah I guess I will

A

what's the use in pushing

F#m E

when it's all uphill

*** Verse 2:

I can't be appointed E

keeper of the flame E

without two to carry A

it won't burn the same - oh F#m | E

C#m

It seems obvious to me

but then again

D

could be A B

C#m B

believed in fate

believed you were lucky

A E

'cause life could be lovely

C#m F# A2

*** Verse 3:

It gets so embarassing E

so I acquiesce E

It seems logical to me C#m

but then again B

*** Bridge:

D A

There must be some other door that they are saving

E B

to tell you hopes that I had -

B A2

we can just leave it alone for now
