	        Intro: Bb  Bb  Gm  F   (2x) 

					 Bb 
It took so long to get me back on my feet 
						Bb 
It takes so long to find the words and the beat 

And Charlie's waiting on the end of the phone 
		Gm 			F 
To hear you call on him to try to recapture 
						Bb 
But them old records won't be saving your soul 
						Bb 
And them feelings got the reasons you know 

That you've forgotten somewhere 
			Gm 
Riding a train to place 
		       F 
You are out in the cold cold 

Gm					Cm   	  F 
And it feels like all you'd have to do is step outside 
Gm						Cm 
Stop pacing around and waiting for some moment 
	Bb		F 
That might never arrive 

Bb Gm But you're never gonna find it Eb Like when you were young Eb F And everybody used to call you lucky
Pre-Verse: Bb Bb Nothing feels right in the wintery cold Bb Steam, heat, clang, and the dark at your door All the other rooms are a party tonight Gm F And you never got an invitation Bb And you feel in your bones, steady aching some more Bb Twenty five years gone just an hour ago Momma never told me there'd be days like these G F Until it was much too late to recover Gm Cm F And it feels like all you'd have to do is step outside Gm Cm Bb F Stop pacing around and waiting for some moment that might never arrive
Bb Gm But you're never gonna find it Em Bb When your knees got so weak Bb Gm But it's right here in case you need it Eb Like when you were young Bb F And everybody used to call you lucky Eb When you were young Bb F And everybody used to call you lucky
Gm Cm F But it feels like you just might explode inside Gm You've been pacing around and waiting Cm Bb F For some moment that might never arrive at all Bb Gm F What you don't have, you don't need it anymore Bb Gm F Bb What you don't have, you don't need it anymore
Bb Gm But you're never gonna find it Eb Bb F When your knees got so weak Bb Gm And it's right here in case you need it Eb Like when you were young Bb F And everybody used to call you lucky When you were young And everybody used to call you lucky
If you're anywhere in Manhattan In the next eight days or so Let me know Speak soon, stay lucky.
