Angry Johnny and the Killbillies - Thank Your Lucky Stars 

       G 
If you knew the whole sad story, 

I guarantee it'd make you cry, 
        C 
But you just know bits and pieces, 
                      G 
So you sit and wonder why. 
   G 
No point in both of us feeling down, 
                  C 
I'm sure that you agree, 
        G                D 
So just thank your lucky stars 
               G      C G 
That you ain't me. 

       G 
If you wonder why I'm sittin' here 

Alone most every night, 
        C 
Smokin' cigarettes and drinkin' beer 
                  G 
Until the morning light, 
     G 
It's because I lost my one true love, 
                            C 
She just stopped and set me free, 
        G                D 
So just thank your lucky stars 
               G    C G 
That you ain't me. 

          C 
You ain't me and you ain't dyin' 
       D                G 
Just a little more each day, 
          C 
You ain't me and you ain't cryin' 
            G            D 
'Cause your darling went away, 
          C 
You ain't me and you don't drink yourself 
       D            G 
Into a stupor every day, 
          G                     D 
You're as lucky as a body could be 
                 G    C G 
'Cause you ain't me. 

        G 
So just leave my by my lonesome, 

Don't let my heartache bring you down, 
      C 
And I won't hold it against you, 
                   G 
If you stop comin' around, 
          G 
'Cause as far as she's concerned, 
                  C 
I'm ancient history, 
        G                D 
So just thank your lucky stars 
               G    C G 
That you ain't me. 

       G 
So get on with what you're doin', 
                              C 
And just leave this poor fool be, 
    G                D 
And thank your lucky stars 
               G   C G 
That you ain't me. 
    G                     D     
And just thank your lucky stars 
               G    C G 
That you ain't me. 
     G                D 
Just thank your lucky stars 
               G     C G 
That you ain't me.
