D G A D
He was born a sailors son,
G D A
Nothing came easy or free,
D G A D
He suffered the squalls, all the rises and falls,
G D A
And everything else in between.

But he says storms always fade after they've had their way,
G A
They're never as bad as they seem.

Hey lucky you lucky me.

[Verse 2]
Who'd ever thought for a moment,
She'd have to grow up so fast,
School beauty queen with a child at sixteen,
Swore that her fortunes had passed.
[Pre-Chorus 2]
But blessings can hide in the strangest disguise,
I know that she would agree.
[Chorus]
As long as the rivers still run to the seas,
Hey lucky you lucky me,
Hey lucky you lucky me.

[Verse 3]
Hey look at me in the spotlight,
Ripped jeans and rock and roll hair,
Feeling so cool but I'd be such a fool,
Singing to no one out there.
[Pre-Chorus 3]
So hey take a bow every band needs a crowd,
And I've got a song we can sing.
[Chorus]
As long as the rivers still run to the seas,
Hey lucky you lucky me,
Hey lucky you lucky me,
Hey lucky you lucky me.
