Stay Lucky Chords & Lyrics by The Gaslight Anthem
Stay Lucky
guitar chords lyrics
Intro
Bb / Bb / Gm / F x2
Bb
It took so long to get me back on my feet
Bb
It takes so long to find the words and the beat
And Charlie's waiting on the end of the phone
Gm F
To hear you call on him to try to recapture
Bb
But them old records won't be saving your soul
Bb
And them feelings got the reasons you know
That you've forgotten somewhere
Gm
Riding a train to place
F
You are out in the cold cold
Gm Cm F
And it feels like all you'd have to do is step outside
Gm Cm
Stop pacing around and waiting for some moment
Bb F
That might never arrive
Bb Gm
But you're never gonna find it
Eb
Like when you were young
Eb F
And everybody used to call you lucky
Pre-Verse
Bb / Bb
Bb
Nothing feels right in the wintery cold
Bb
Steam, heat, clang, and the dark at your door
All the other rooms are a party tonight
Gm F
And you never got an invitation
Bb
And you feel in your bones, steady aching some more
Bb
Twenty five years gone just an hour ago
Momma never told me there'd be days like these
G F
Until it was much too late to recover
Gm Cm F
And it feels like all you'd have to do is step outside
Gm Cm Bb F
Stop pacing around and waiting for some moment that might never arrive
Bb Gm
But you're never gonna find it
Em Bb
When your knees got so weak
Bb Gm
But it's right here in case you need it
Eb
Like when you were young
Bb F
And everybody used to call you lucky
Eb
When you were young
Bb F
And everybody used to call you lucky
Gm Cm F
But it feels like you just might explode inside
Gm
You've been pacing around and waiting
Cm Bb F
For some moment that might never arrive at all
Bb Gm F
What you don't have, you don't need it anymore
Bb Gm F Bb
What you don't have, you don't need it anymore
Bb Gm
But you're never gonna find it
Eb Bb F
When your knees got so weak
Bb Gm
And it's right here in case you need it
Eb
Like when you were young
Bb F
And everybody used to call you lucky
When you were young
And everybody used to call you lucky
If you're anywhere in Manhattan
In the next eight days or so
Let me know
Speak soon, stay lucky.
