Born Under A Bad Sign - Albert King
[Chorus]
D7Born under a bad sign
I've been down since I began to crawl
A7If it wasn't for bad luck
G7I wouldn't have no luck at all
[Verse]
D7Bad luck and trouble's my only friend
I've been down ever since I was ten
[Chorus] (x2)
D7I can't read, never learned how to write
My whole life is one big fight
[Solo]
D7Wine and women is all I crave
A big legged woman's gonna carry me to my grave
[Chorus]
D7Born under a bad sign
I've been down since I began to crawl
A7If it wasn't for bad luck
G7I wouldn't have no luck
A7If it wasn't for real bad luck
G7N.C.
I wouldn't have no luck at all
