[Verse]
                 D
In a dirty hotel room
                       G
Somewhere in rainy California
                            A
Channel surfin' through the night
                       D
And there aint nothin' on
                        D
I went down to an empty bar
                           G
And I started talking to a stranger
                           A
He said "I come here every night
                       D
So I don't have to be alone"

[Chorus]
                         D
I guess that I'm a lucky man
                              A        D
I guess that everything ain't all that bad
                             Bm
There's always somebody with less
                   A
I realize that I'm blessed
      G                 D
Now I understand, I'm a lucky man

                           D
Somewhere out there in the night
                        G
There must be a million people
                       A
They're just trying to survive
           A
Barely holding on
                         D
I can't feel sorry for myself
                              G
When everything ain't goin' my way
                                     A
'Cause I've got dreams and something else
                        D
I've got a reason to go on

[Chorus]
                         D
I guess that I'm a lucky man
                              A        D
I guess that everything ain't all that bad
                             Bm
There's always somebody with less
                   A
I realize that I'm blessed
      G                 D
Now I understand, I'm a lucky man

[Chorus]                         D
I guess that I'm a lucky man
                              A        D
I guess that everything ain't all that bad
                             Bm
There's always somebody with less
                   A
I realize that I'm blessed
      G                 D
Now I understand, I'm a lucky man

                   A
I realize that I'm blessed
      G                 D
Now I understand, I'm a lucky man
