Flat E MajorE tunning
It was not his lucky day
B minorBm
He woke up in the mornin'
A augmentedA B minorBm
He found the note she'd left
A augmentedA
'said im leavin' with the dog
B minorBm A augmentedA B minorBm
An' we're headed way out west
B minorBm
And then he heard a knockin'
A augmentedA B minorBm
It was the landlord at the door
A augmentedA
'said "you're three months overdue kid,
B minorBm A augmentedA B minorBm
So you dont live here no more"
B minorBm A augmentedA B minorBm
It was not his lucky day
B minorBm A augmentedA B minorBm
It was not his lucky day
B minorBm
He went down to the fact'ry
A augmentedA B minorBm
The foreman said "you're late"
A augmentedA
He called down for security to
B minorBm A augmentedA B minorBm
Escort him to the gate
B minorBm
'said dont bother comin' back kid
A augmentedA B minorBm
Don't expect no severence pay
A augmentedA
He lost his girl, lost his dog, lost his home, lost his job
B minorBm A augmentedA B minorBm
It was not his lucky day
B minorBm A augmentedA B minorBm
No it was not his lucky day
B minorBm A augmentedA B minorBm
It was not his lucky day
B minorBm
He pulled his delta 88
A augmentedA B minorBm
Up to the fillup 66
A augmentedA
Pulled out his rouger 44
B minorBm A augmentedA B minorBm
An' he walked in the front door
B minorBm
Said "give me all your money sir,
A augmentedA B minorBm
And i'll be on my way"
A augmentedA
But he should have seen it comin'
B minorBm A augmentedA B minorBm
It was not his lucky day
B minorBm A augmentedA B minorBm
No it was not his lucky day
B minorBm A augmentedA B minorBm
It was not his lucky day
B minorBm A augmentedA B minorBm

B minorBm A augmentedA B minorBm
It was not his lucky day
B minorBm
The clerk apologized
A augmentedA B minorBm
Said "theres no money in the till,
A augmentedA
A majorA woman and a dog just robbed me,
B minorBm A augmentedA B minorBm
Stole my last one dollar bill
B minorBm
So put away that gun,
A augmentedA B minorBm
The cops are on there way,
A augmentedA
You ain't done nothin' wrong yet son,
B minorBm A augmentedA B minorBm
Just turn and walk away"
B minorBm A augmentedA B minorBm
But it was not his lucky day
B minorBm A augmentedA B minorBm
It was not his lucky day
B minorBm
He cussed and he kicked the floor
A augmentedA B minorBm
And then he walked back out that door
A augmentedA
It sounded just like thunder
B minorBm A augmentedA B minorBm
Seven shotguns' deadly roar
B minorBm
His body danced and twisted
A augmentedA B minorBm
Just like a puppet on a string
A augmentedA
He came to rest in a bloody mess
B minorBm A augmentedA B minorBm
Up against the coke machine
B minorBm A augmentedA B minorBm
It was not his lucky day
B minorBm A augmentedA B minorBm
It was not his lucky day
B minorBm A augmentedA B minorBm
It was not his lucky day
