Sam Riggs "The Lucky Ones" on The Texas Music Scene chords
Start Jamming...
[E] Welcome back y'all.
You know, Sam Riggs moved [D] quickly into his follow-up to Outrun the Sun with another ambitious project he calls [C] Breathless.
One of the early offerings from this [D] album that made its [G] way to Sam's live set was this one.
It's called The Lucky Ones.
The Lucky Ones is a song about [C] growing up through hard times, [G] sort of coming up from nothing.
My brother and I raised up, you know, we never had anything [D] really handed to us.
We just, you [G] know, it was kind of my parents were like, you know, just take what you got and make something [C] out of it.
And most of what we had was just ourselves, [G] you know.
The chorus is, you know, [D] we were the lucky ones raised up to [G] be fighters.
And the hook is we were poor and we were wild and we were young and we were the lucky ones.
[C] And that song is just about just making something out of yourself.
[G] Singing that song on stage every night and seeing the crowd's reaction and seeing [D] people sing along with it,
knowing that the [G] lyrics go straight to the heart of me, you know,
[Bb] it's just the best connection I think I've ever had with the crowd with that song.

Swinging [Ab] at everything that we could see through hungry [Db] eyes.
We were [Ab] the lucky ones.
Hell bent for [Eb] fire.
Giving it [Fm] everything we had [Ab] to keep our dreams [Db] alive.
[Fm] We were poor [Eb] and we were wild and we were [Db] young.
[Ab] We were the lucky ones.
Between [Fm] the blood and the sweat, count [Eb] us teens, you can bet, [Db] working hard is all we'd ever [Ab] known.
And all of [F] the girls in the cars busted [Eb] lips, broken hearts, came [Db] alive out on those back roads.
[Fm] And just a bunch of small [Eb] town kids looking for [Db] trouble when the sun went down.
[Fm] The best nights of [Eb] our lives is all [Db] we found.
