I was talking, not two days ago
D A G A
To a certain bartender I'm lucky to know

If I should bother dating unfamous men
And Henry said,
[Bridge 1]
C G/B A
"You're lucky to even know me,
C G/B A
You're lucky to be alive.
C G/B A
You're lucky to be drinking here for free,
C G/B A
'Cause I'm a sucker for your lucky, pretty eyes."
And then he said,
[Chorus 1]

Do ya wanna find alligator cowboy boots they just put on sale?

You're lucky to be alive.
