[Verse 1]
G C
Soft clouds all drift away
G C
Bright sunshine never stays
G C D
Warm afternoons turn rainy dark and cruel
G C
A candle's glowing light will die
G C
The purest voices often lie
G
And with love I've found that all the same
D
is true

[Chorus]
C D
Even though I should know better
G G/F# Em
I guess we could maybe try
C D G
There is the risk of looking like a fool
C D
Ah, But I've got a lucky feeling
G G/F# Em
Just a hunch, don't ask me why
C D
You might be an exception to the rule

[Verse 2]
G C
Sweet dreams can't be recalled
G C
High hopes can collapse and fall
G C
As the sky keeps turning sadder shades of
D
blue
G C
The strongest promise finally breaks
G C
And only leads to bigger aches
G C
Are lessons that I learned at sorrow's
D D7
school

[Chorus]
G C
Even though I should know better
G G/F# Em
I guess we could maybe try
C D G
There is the risk of looking like a fool
C D
Ah, but I've got a lucky feeling
G G/F# Em
Just a hunch, don't ask me why
C D
You might be an exception to the rule

[Chorus]
C D
Even though I should know better
G G/F# Em
I guess we could maybe try
C D G
There is the risk of looking like a fool
C D
Ah, but I've got a lucky feeling
