The Luck Of The Draw Lyrics & Chords By Pete Atkin

Atkin-James

I once always finished ahead
I got what I wanted and more
I went on so long without losing
I suppose it's the luck of the draw

I got what I wanted before
I was used to the runaway wins
And that makes it hard to put up with
When at long last the bad patch begins
[as originally written:]
And it had to be the one that mattered And it turned out to be the one that mattered
Who didn't want to know Who didn't want to know
And I wonder if all the others were the same And I wonder if even all the others were the same
But didn't show But didn't show

I once always finished ahead
I got what I wanted and more
So long as I did the choosing
I suppose it's the luck of the draw
