             E
I've been a runner, I've been a fighter
               Bsus4
I've been the fuse, hell, I've been the lighter
              C#m7
Taken every wrong turn down the bridges I burned
        A
It's a bad reputation, but it's damn well earned

 C#m7                  Bsus4              A
Gotta thank God that this ol' life ain't fair
        C#m7                Bsus4          A
There's only one way to explain how I got here

Chorus:
       E
I got lucky
                    Bsus4
Well, ain't that's somethin'
                      C#m7
for someone just like me
                           A
Who don't deserve a damn thing?
         E
I know broken, beat down
               Bsus4
And I know I show it then and now
              C#m7
But, hell, I chose it, yeah, I own it
         A
And it brings me to my knees
       E
I got lucky

I've been it all, I've been empty
I've had nothin', I've had plenty
Yeah, I've done the dance, too many close calls
More than most, most of all

Chorus:
I got lucky
Ain't that somethin' for someone just like me
Who don't deserve a damn thing?
I know broken, beat down
I know I show it then and now
But, hell, I chose it, yeah, I own it
And it brings me to my knees
I got lucky

   C#m7                        Bsus4
I make sure I don't make it on easy on me
       A          E       F#m7
But I woke up today, so that must mean

Chorus:
I got lucky
Well, ain't that somethin' for someone just like me
Who don't deserve one damn thing?
I know broken, beat down
And I know I show it then and now
Hell, I chose it, yeah, I own it
And it brings me to my knees
I got lucky
I got lucky
Oh

I'm your mom
I'm your mom
