  			SOME GUYS HAVE ALL THE LUCK   (Rod Steward) 
 
 
Intro:   All Song the same sequence  D  B  G  A. 
 
Chorus; 
Some guys have all the luck,  some guys have all the pain 
 
Some guys get all the breaks, some guys do nothing but complain 
 
 
Alone in a crowd on a bus after work and I?m dreaming. 
 
The guy next to me has a girl in his arm, my arms are empty. 
 
How does it feel when the girl next to you says she loves you. 
 
Seems so unfair when there?s love everywhere but there?s none for me. 
 
Chorus; 
Some guys have all the luck,  some guys have all the pain 
 
Some guys get all the breaks, some guys do nothing but complain  UUUooooo 
 
 
Someone to take on a walk by the lake, Lord let it be me, 
 
Someone who?s shy, someone who?ll cry at sad movies. 
 
I know I would die, if I ever found out, she was fooling me, 
 
You?re just a dream and as real as it seems, ain?t that lucky. 
 
Chorus; 
Some guys have all the luck,  some guys have all the pain 
 
Some guys get all the breaks, some guys do nothing but complain   Uuuuuuooo 
 
Lead: 
 
All of my friends have a ring, on their fingers, and they?ve someone. 
 
Someone to care for them it a?int fair I got no one. 
 
The car overheated, I called up, and pleaded there?s help on the way 
 
I called, you collect you didn?t accept, you had nothing to say. 
 
Chorus; 
If you were here with me, I?d feel so happy I could cry, 
 
You?re so dear to me, I just can?t let you say good-bye. 
 
0000 uuuuu  repeat until fade
