Capo 1
[Intro]
G
[Verse 1]
GSeems like you've been dining on the Cremix of the Gday
But Gwith a song in mind I am sure the CDJ is bound to Gplay
A Dsong for Sunday drivers who, like Cus, could use some kind of GsouCndG  
She my lucky Dpenny
When I ain't got a lousy Gdime
[Verse 2]
Well Gshe's the one beside me when the Cworld ain't on it's Gtime
I Gneed a love to hide me when there's Cnowhere left to Ghide
No Dmatter how I try I find myCself down on my luck someGtimCesG  
She my lucky Dpenny
When I ain't got a lousy Gdime, ma ma ma ma, ma ma ma ma ma
[Chorus]
F  AmShe's my silver and gold
Eb  GmShe got a hold of me, it Clingers
F  AmWhen that sliver of hope
Eb  GmGets pulled out of my D7finger
[Solo]
G   C   G(x2)
D C G C G
She my lucky Dpenny
When I ain't got a lousy Gdime
[Chorus]
F  AmTried to give up the ghost
Eb  GmIt's that hold on me that Clingers
F  AmGo from pillar to post
Eb  GmSlip beneath that rose wiD7thin her
[Verse 3]
GSee the sunlight shining on the Cremains of the Gday
GKeep a song in my love, to the Ctear stains on the Gway
A Dsong for two hitchikers who, like Cus, could use a lift someGtimCesG  
She my lucky Dpenny
When I ain't got a lousy Gdime
I bet my bottom Ddollar
When I ain't got a lousy Gdime, ma ma ma ma, ma ma ma ma ma, ma ma ma ma ma, ma ma ma ma ma
