Intro - G - C9 - G - C9 
 
 
(verse 1) 
G                      C9                   G   - C9  
Never been the kind of guy who walks around ladders, 
  G           C9             G  -  C9 
I open up umbrellas when I'm inside, 
G                          C9                G   - C9  
The black cats that cross my path, they never matter, 
         Am                      G 
But I've never had this much at stake, 
C                         D 
Don't wanna lose it by tempting fate, 
                        G 
So I'm gonna knock on wood, 
     D 
Salt over my shoulder, 
   C9                 D 
Do anything to keep her love, 
       C             G          D 
'Cause it feels so good, every time I hold her, 
        C9              D 
Like I always dreamed it would, 
                   Em 
I think this could be forever, 
       C           D             G - C9 
Two of us together, Knock on wood,  

(verse 2) 

Well, it's been two weeks, and everything's comin' up aces, 

But I've seen my love come an' I've seen it go, 

For the first time in my life, I'm not hesitatin', 

Oh, I knew after just one dance, 

I wasn't leavin' this one to chance, 
                        G 
So I'm gonna knock on wood, 
     D 
Salt over my shoulder, 
   C9                 D 
Do anything to keep her love, 
       C             G          D 
'Cause it feels so good, every time I hold her, 
        C9              D 
Like I always dreamed it would, 
                   Em 
I think this could be forever, 
       C           D             G - C9 
Two of us together, Knock on wood,  

(bridge) 
                 Em 
Oh, I've got my rabbit's foot around my neck, 
         C 
That ol' wishin' well's got half my pay check, 
      Am                  Em 
Got a bag of four-leaf clovers, 
C                     D 
Anything to be her lover, Knock on wood, 
 
 
(lead - G - D - C - D - 2xs) 
 
 
(chorus) 
                        G 
So I'm gonna knock on wood, 
     D 
Salt over my shoulder, 
   C9                 D 
Do anything to keep her love, 
                     G          D 
'Cause it feels so good, every time I hold her, 
        C9              D 
Like I always dreamed it would, 
                   Em 
I think this could be forever, 
       C           D 
Two of us together, 
                   Em 
I think this could be forever, 
       C          D            G  - C9 
Two of us together, Knock on wood.
