LUCK OF THE DRAW
As recorded by Laci Kaye Booth
(2025 release)


Capo 1st fret


Intro
G  Dm  C


Verse 1
G             D7
Growing up at my own pace
 Em7             Bm7
Another lonesome southern state
C
Daddy’s drunk and mom’s awake
Am7              D
Waiting by the door
    G               D7
I’m doing good, I’m getting by
Em7                Bm7
Glad you asked and that’s a lie
   C
It gets so hot in late July
      Am7         D
Can’t take it anymore


Chorus
G                           Dm7
Benny’s doing drugs and the rent got higher
C                         Am7
Everybody’s dying and the sky is on fire
G                 Dm7                        C
Who messed it up, who the hell’s holding the cards
G                   Dm7
Losing my faith, is nothing sacred
C                         Am7
I ain’t being bitter baby I’m just saying
G                     Dm7                         C
You could blame me or blame it on the luck of the draw
                                 G    Dm7  C
I’ll blame it on the luck of the draw


Verse 2
   G                 D7
My heart is blue, my boots are red
Em7               Bm7
Dancing in a dead woman’s dress
C
Just how much do you expect
    Am7           D7
For me to tip the band


Chorus
     G                           Dm7
When Benny’s doing drugs and the rent got higher
C                         Am7
Everybody’s dying and the sky is on fire
G                 Dm7                        C
Who messed it up, who the hell’s holding the cards
G                   Dm7
Losing my faith, is nothing sacred
C                         Am7
I ain’t being bitter baby I’m just saying
G                     Dm7                         C
You could blame me or blame it on the luck of the draw
                                 G    Dm7  C
I’ll blame it on the luck of the draw

                            G    Dm7  C
Blame it on the luck of the draw


Bridge
C               D/C
Life’s a gamble anyway

  C               D/C
A memory forms an old one fades

  B7
I can’t remember anything

Em          A    C
Anything at all


Chorus
       G                           Dm7
‘Cause Benny’s doing drugs and the rent got higher

C                         Am7
Everybody’s dying and the sky is on fire
G                 Dm7                        C
Who messed it up, who the hell’s holding the cards
G                   Dm7
Losing my faith, is nothing sacred
C                         Am7
I ain’t being bitter baby I’m just saying
G                     Dm7                         C
You could blame me or blame it on the luck of the draw
                               G    Dm7  C
Or blame it on the luck of the draw
                                 G    Dm7
I'll blame it on the luck of the draw


Outro
C                                     G    Dm7  C
Blame it, blame it on the luck of the draw

                G    Dm7  C     G
The luck of the draw
