Out Of Luck by The King Blues
Out Of Luck
INTRO
G
VERSE
G Em
With the red scrunchie for her birthday gift,
C D
She scrapes her hair into a Croydon facelift,
G Em
Punch drunk love at sweet 16,
C D
She thumbs a ride to Gretna Green,
G Em
Leaving something old for somewhere new,
C D
To be with someone battered, black and blue,
G Em
She turns out her light with a song to sing,
C D
Grabs her shoulder bag and her Argos ring,
PRE-CHORUS/CHORUS
G
And she says,
Em
Without a penny, in my pocket,
C D G
I™m out of luck in this kind of town,
Em
But I™ve got you, right by my side,
C D G D Em
So I won™t let them, No I won't let them drag me down,
C D G D Em
So I won™t let them drag me down,
C D G D Em
no I won™t let them drag me down,
C D G D Em
no I won™t let them drag me down,
He turned from Jack the lad into Jack the dad,
His heart was pure but the town was bad,
He had a broken heart from a broken home,
She heard his breaking voice through a broken phone,
He said For you girl I™d walk a Swedish mile,
For a Glasgow kiss and a Chelsea smile,
So he drove til it was morning light,
And the birds will sing him to sleep tonight,
And he says,
Without a penny, in my pocket,
I™m out of luck in this kind of town,
But I™ve got you right by my side,
So I won™t let them drag me down.

SECOND VERSE:
he turned from Jack the lad into Jack the dad
his heart was pure but his town was mad he had a
broken heart from a broken home
she heard his breaking voice thru a broken phone
he said for you I'd walk a Swedish mile
for a Glasgow kiss & a Chelsea smile
so he drove 'til it was morning light
the birds will sing him to sleep tonight
& he said (go to chorus)
*note about the chorus:
since all the chords are really easy to change from one to another, it was quite hard to
how i play them. this is an interpretation but it sounds really good for all of us who
play uke.s! l.o.l.
