[verse] E new to town with a made up name C#m in the angel's 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 so overnight, you look like a 60s queen B A another name goes up in lights A B E 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 C#m you're the lucky one E but can you tell me now B you're the lucky one A E oh, oh, oh... [verse] E now it's big black cars and riviera views C#m and your lover in the foyer doesn't even know you A E B and your secrets end up splashed on the news front page E and they tell you that you're lucky but you're so confused C#m cause you don't feel pretty, you just feel used A E B and all the young things line up to take your place A another name goes up in lights A B you wonder if you'll make it out alive [chorus] E and they'll tell you now B you're the lucky one A yeah, they'll tell you now C#m you're the lucky one E but can you tell me now B you're the lucky one A C#m E B A oh, oh, oh, oh, ooh, oh, oh E B A oh, ooh, oh, oh [verse] 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 you 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... A cause now my name is up in lights A B but I think you got it right [chorus] E let me tell you now B you're the lucky one A let me tell you now C#m you're the lucky one E let me tell you now B you're the lucky one A oh, oh, oh... E yeah those tell you now B you're the lucky one A yeah they tell you now C#m you're the lucky one E let me tell you now B you're the lucky one A C#m E B A oh, oh, oh, oh, oh....
