Aimee Mann (believed You Were) Lucky Lyrics

Capo 1:  F maps as E

Note: This is the way I've seen Aimee play it in concert (well, in E - the

	recording is in F --- Me, I play it in A with alternate fingers

	e.g., A = X07650 or X07600;  D = XX0770 and F#m as 044200 - well

	you get the idea...)



*** Intro:

E  |  E



*** Verse 1:

E          

So I guess I'll give it up

E 

yeah I guess I will

A

what's the use in pushing

F#m                    E

when it's all uphill





*** Verse 2:

I can't be appointed           E

keeper of the flame            E

without two to carry           A

it won't burn the same - oh    F#m   | E

C#m

It seems obvious to me     

    B

but then again 

D 

could be                   A  B  

you just never felt that way





*** Chorus

       A               E       (bass E F# G# B C#)

I wish you believed in life

C#m         B

believed in fate

A                  E      (bass E F# G# B C#)

believed you were lucky

C#m           B

and worth the wait

A                    E

'cause life could be lovely

C#m        F#     A2

Life could be so great





*** Verse 3:

It gets so embarassing                    E

so I acquiesce                            E

and I'll change my mind again             A

you change your address - oh              F#m | E

It seems logical to me                    C#m 

but then again                            B

could be I was simply not that smart      D   | A   B





*** Chorus:

I thought you believed in life            A   E

believed in fate                          C#m B

believed you were lucky                   A   E

and worth the wait                        C#m B

'cause life could be lovely               A   E

Life could be so great                    C#m F# A2





*** Bridge:

D                         A

There must be some other door that they are saving

  E                       B

behind which my happiness lies

D                     A

I won't be wasting my words

                         C#m

to tell you hopes that I had -     

                      B        A2

we can just leave it alone for now 





*** Chorus:

I wish you: Belief in Life                A   E

Belief in Fate                            C#m B

Belief you are Lucky                      A   E

and worth the wait                        C#m B

'cause life could be lovely               A   E

Life could be fucking great.              C#m F#  A2  E



                                          A
