A9       Asus4 E7   E7/9 E7     Em7 A9+5
They call us  luck - y,  you and I,

FM7      Dm7  G7          CM7  CM7/6
Luck - y girl,   luck - y guy.

CM7  CM7/6  Bm7   Bm7/E    E7/9  E7 C#m7-5  F#7
When  you  take my hand or touch my cheek,

  F#m7     Dm7  Bm7        Bm7-5  E7   Em7
I know I'm on a life - time luck - y streak.

A9     Asus4 E7   E7/9  E7        Em7 A9+5
A luck - y  rain - bow lights the sky

FM7      Dm7  G7          CM7  CM7/6
When we kiss,    when we sigh.


First time:

 C7  FM7    Bm7-5      Dm6       Fdim    C#m7-5   F#7
They say I'm luck - y, mis - ter luck - y guy,

    Bmsus4 Bm7/E Bm7-5   E7  A7/9  A7
And you're  the   rea - son why.


Last time:

 C7  FM7        Bm7-5     Dm6       Fdim    C#m7-5   F#7
They say you're luck - y, mis - ter luck - y guy,

   Bmsus4 Bm7/E Fdim E7 A6 
But dar - ling,  so  am I.

*Like most odd-ball chords I use in my charts, the longer the name, the simpler the chord often is. The Bmsus4 you see in the endings is played as 003320
