The Luck Of The Draw

                                                                             
                                                                               Fb5
I once always finished ahead                  |Am6 / / / |Am6 / / / |
I got what I wanted and more                  |G   / / / |G   / / / |
I went on so long without losing              |Am6 / / / |Am6 / / / |D7 / / / |D7 / / / | 
I suppose it's the luck of the draw           |Eb  / / / |Ab  / / / |C  / / / |G  / / / | 

I got what I wanted before                    |Am6 / / / |Am6 / / / |
I was used to the runaway wins                |G   / / / |G   / / / |
And that makes it hard to put up with         |Am6 / / / |Am6 / / / |D7 / / / |D7 / / / | 
When at long last the bad patch begins        |Eb  / / / |Ab  / / / |C  / / / |G  / / / | 

And it had to be the one that mattered        |A9  / / / |A9  / / / |
Who didn't want to know                       |Em  / / / |C7  / / / |
And I wonder if all the others were the same  |Fb5 / / / |Fb5 / / / |
But didn't show                               |B7  / / / |E7  / / / |

I once always finished ahead                  |Am6 / / / |Am6 / / / |
I got what I wanted and more                  |G   / / / |G   / / / |
So long as I did the choosing                 |Am6 / / / |Am6 / / / |D7 / / / |D7 / / / | 
I suppose it's the luck of the draw           |Eb  / / / |Ab  / / / |C  / / / |G  / / / | 
I suppose it's the luck of the draw           |Eb  / / / |Ab  / / / |C  / / / |G  / / / |
