Intro: G 

verse 1 
G                                    C            G 
Seems like you've been dining on the remix of the day 
    G                                 C              G 
But with a song in mind I am sure the DJ is bound to play 
  D                                 C                          G  C  G 
A song for Sunday drivers who, like us, could use some kind of sound 
             D 
She my lucky penny 
                         G 
When I ain't got a lousy dime 

verse 2 
     G                                C                   G 
Well she's the one beside me when the world ain't on it's time 
  G                                   C               G 
I need a love to hide me when there's nowhere left to hide 
   D                         C                        G  C  G 
No matter how I try I find myself down on my luck sometimes 
             D 
She my lucky penny 
                         G 
When I ain't got a lousy dime, ma ma ma ma, ma ma ma ma ma 

F  Am 
Eb  Gm                       C 
    She got a hold of me, it lingers 
F  Am 
   When that sliver of hope 
Eb  Gm                    D7 
    Gets pulled out of my finger 

Solo 
G  C  G  (x2) 
D  C  G  C  G 
             D 
She my lucky penny 
                         G 
When I ain't got a lousy dime 

F  Am 
   Tried to give up the ghost 
Eb  Gm                        C 
    It's that hold on me that lingers 
F  Am 
   Go from pillar to post 
Eb  Gm                       D7 
    Slip beneath that rose within her 

verse 3 
G                                    C            G 
Seems like you've been dining on the remix of the day 
G                              C                  G 
Keep a song in my love, to the tear stains on the way 
  D                                 C                        G  C  G 
A song for two hitchikers who, like us, could use a lift sometimes 
             D 
She my lucky penny 
                         G 
When I ain't got a lousy dime 
                D 
I bet my bottom dollar 
                         G 
When I ain't got a lousy dime, ma ma ma ma, ma ma ma ma ma, ma ma ma ma ma, ma ma ma ma ma
