The Wood Brothers is an American folk band consisting of brothers Chris and Oliver Wood, as well as multi-instrumentalist Jano Rix.
Brothers Oliver and Chris Wood grew up in Boulder, CO, and both left the area after graduating from high school, Oliver moving to Atlanta while Chris ended up in New York. Oliver, a guitarist, discovered he had a knack for writing songs and formed the blues-based King Johnson, which continues to do frequent gigs on the Southern circuit.

DmABbF My whole saturday and sunday too DmABbF I was thinkin''bout ways not to lose DmABbF I lay down my weapons is what I've done DmABbF Too late to hide, feet too soft to run G7A7sus4A7 But people say I'm the luckiest man
And yeah they say
[Chorus]
BbFBbF Running is useless and fighting is foolish BbFBbF You're not gonna win but still you're the luckiest man you're up against BbFBbF And too many horses and mysterious forces BbFBbF What you don't know is you are the luckiest man BbF You're the luckiest man
DmABbF
[Verse]
DmABbF I done talked to the devil when he calls my name DmABbF But sometimes when I'm losing it all seems the same DmABbF And when I fall I'm back up again DmABbF Just to slip on the same mistakes and slide right back in G7A7sus4A7 But people say I'm the luckiest man
And yeah they say
[Chorus]
BbFBbF Running is useless and fighting is foolish BbFBbF You're not gonna win but still you're the luckiest man you're up against BbFBbF And too many horses and mysterious forces BbFBbF What you don't know is you are the luckiest man BbF You're the luckiest man
DmABbF DmABbF
[Verse]
DmABbF Try to keep my faith and keep my mind DmABbF Hate to lose either one when the whip cracks behind DmABbF And I can't help but mourning just a little each night DmABbF People say everything is gonna be alright G7A7sus4A7 But people say I'm the luckiest man
And yeah they say
[Outro]
BbFBbF Running is useless and fighting is foolish BbFBbF You're not gonna win but still you're the luckiest man you're up against BbFBbF And too many horses and mysterious forces BbFBbF What you don't know is you are the luckiest man BbF You're the luckiest man Bb You're the luckiest man
