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

                                            while saying *

     * Suddenly, I'm dangerous

*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!
