If you have a friend on whom you think you can rely you are a lucky man

if you've found the reason to live on and not to die you are a lucky man


F                          G
preachers and poets and scholars dont know it

F                           G
temples and statues and steeples wont show it

F                                      F                  A   G   D
if you got the secret then try not to blow it stay a lucky man

A                                 D                                A      G D       
If you found the meaning to the truth in this old world you are a lucky man
A                                         A                                             
if knowledge hangs around your neck like pearls instead of chains you are a 
 A           G   D
