It was not his lucky day

Bm
He woke up in the mornin'
             A          Bm
He found the note she'd left
         A
'said im leavin' with the dog
          Bm     A       Bm
An' we're headed way out west

Bm
And then he heard a knockin'
                    A      Bm
It was the landlord at the door
              A
'said "you're three months overdue kid,
       Bm        A       Bm
So you dont live here no more"

Bm             A     Bm
It was not his lucky day
Bm             A     Bm
It was not his lucky day

Bm
He went down to the fact'ry
            A            Bm
The foreman said "you're late"
   A
He called down for security to
Bm         A      Bm
Escort him to the gate

Bm
'said dont bother comin' back kid
                A         Bm
Don't expect no severence pay
            A
He lost his girl, lost his dog, lost his home, lost his job
       Bm      A     Bm
It was not his lucky day

Bm                A     Bm

Bm
He pulled his delta 88
                 A Bm
Up to the fillup 66
               A
Pulled out his rouger 44
       Bm        A         Bm
An' he walked in the front door

Bm
Said "give me all your money sir,
            A     Bm
And i'll be on my way"
       A
But he should have seen it comin'
       Bm      A     Bm
It was not his lucky day

Bm                A     Bm

It was not his lucky day

Bm
The clerk apologized
                      A      Bm
Said "theres no money in the till,
  A
A woman and a dog just robbed me,
         Bm       A      Bm
Stole my last one dollar bill

Bm
So put away that gun,
             A        Bm
The cops are on there way,
    A
You ain't done nothin' wrong yet son,
     Bm       A    Bm
Just turn and walk away"
Bm                 A     Bm
But it was not his lucky day
Bm             A     Bm
It was not his lucky day

Bm
He cussed and he kicked the floor
                        A        Bm
And then he walked back out that door
   A
It sounded just like thunder
      Bm        A      Bm
Seven shotguns' deadly roar
Bm
His body danced and twisted
                   A    Bm
Just like a puppet on a string
   A
He came to rest in a bloody mess
    Bm         A    Bm
Up against the coke machine

Bm             A     Bm
It was not his lucky day
Bm             A     Bm
It was not his lucky day
Bm             A     Bm
It was not his lucky day
