Never found a four leaf clover to bring good luck to me,

no rabbit's foot, no lucky star, no magic wishing tree. 
                 C         Am                   F       Em 
But I got lucky,           yes, I got lucky, 
                       Dm         G 
when I found you, oh yeah!

So won't you tell me that you love me, hurry up and name the day, 
        C                       Em                       F                    G 
and then I'll know that my good luck is really here to stay.
