E
New to town with a made up name
       C#m
In the angel city chasing fortune and fame
         A                                   E
And the camera flashes make it look like a dream
E
You had it figured out since you were in school
     C#m
Everybody loves pretty everybody loves cool
   A                                    E   B
So overnight you look like a sixties' queen

          A
 Another name goes up in lights
 Like diamonds in the sky

Chorus:
E
And they'll tell you now
            B
You're the lucky one
 A
Yeah they'll tell you now
You're the lucky one
     E
But can you tell me now
            B        A         E
You're the lucky one oh oh ohhh

Now, it’s big black cars and Riviera views
And your lover in the foyer doesn’t even know you
And your secrets end up splashed on the news front page
And they tell you that you’re lucky, but you’re so confused
'Cause you don’t feel pretty, you just feel used
And all the young things line up to take your place

 Another name goes up in lights
 You wonder if you'll make it out alive

Chorus:
And they’ll tell you now,
You’re the lucky one
Yeah, they’ll tell you now,
You’re the lucky one
But can you tell me now,
You’re the lucky one?
Oh, oh, oh

          E
It was a few years later I showed up here
          C#m
And they still tell the legend of how you disappeared
          A                                                E  B
How they took the money and your dignity and got the hell out
E
They say you bought a bunch of land somewhere
         C#m
Chose the Rose Garden over Madison Square
        A                                  E B
And it took some time but I understand it now

Cause now my name is up in lights
But I think you got it right

Chorus:
Let me tell you now
You're the lucky one
Let me tell you now
You're the lucky one
Let me tell you now
You're the lucky one  oh oh ohhh

Yeah they'll tell you now
You're the lucky one
Yeah they'll tell you now
You're the lucky one
But can you tell me now
You're the lucky one  oh oh ohhh
