Taylor Swift - The Lucky One

Standard Tuning / Capo on the 4th fret


Intro:      C


C
 New to town with a made up name 
        Am
 In the angel city chasing fortune and fame
          F                                   C
 And the camera flashes make it look like a dream

C
 You had it figured out since you were in school
     Am
 Everybody loves pretty everybody loves cool
    F                                    C      G
 So overnight you look like a sixties' queen


          F
 Another name goes up in lights
                        G
 Like diamonds in the sky


  C                                   
 And they'll tell you now 
             G
 You're the lucky one
  F
 Yeah they'll tell you now 

 You're the lucky one
      C 
 But can you tell me now 
             G         F           C
 You're the lucky one  oh oh ohhh

 
           C
 Now it's big black cars and Riviera views
          Am
 And your lover in the foyer doesn't even know you
           F                                         C     G
 And your secrets end up splashed on the news front page


           C
 And they tell you that you're lucky

 But you're so confused
           Am
 Cause you don't feel pretty you just feel used
      F                                          C      G
 And all the young things line up to take your place


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

 
  C                                   
 And they'll tell you now 
             G

 C    G    F  x2      C     
 

           C
 It was a few years later I showed up here
          Am
 And they still tell the legend of how you disappeared
           F                                                C    G
 How they took the money and your dignity and got the hell out


C
 They say you bought a bunch of land somewhere
         Am
 Chose the Rose Garden over Madison Square
         F                                  C    G
 And it took some time but I understand it now
 

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


  C
