Tuning:
This chord progression is extremely simple. The strumming pattern throughout
the whole song is a gallop. I like to palm mute the verses to give it some
contrast and make it sound like the original recording.
[Intro]
E A x2
[Verse 1]
The Esmell of coffee hits me asA I open up my eyes,
A southernE angel wearing nothing but Aan apron and a smile,
I say Ethank you sweet Lord Jesus tell theA truth don't know how I gEot so lucky
All them Eboys from back in high school wondeAr how I'm still alive,
Hooked by Ebull dove off of blue lake bridge andA wrecked my pick-up twice,
Then Eshe picked this here country boy out oAf all them other guys bEoys that's lucky
[Chorus]
I Bgot a couple buddies playinAg football in Ethe pros,
And I Bknow this guy who owns a whole danAg beach inE Mexico,
There's C#msome who good looks some with brains someF#m rolling in the dough bAut y'all trust me
I'd rather Ebe luckyA E A
[Verse 2]
Now you can Ewin a the power ball with Aa million in the pot,
Then Ego in with Ace and King and hit a Astraight flush on the flop,
You can Esit here on the creek bank fishin' Awith a girl this hot man thatE's plain lucAky
[Chorus]
