I saw someone else's version on here and it didn't sound right. I followed the comments, someone said to do it
in C#/Db, and whaddya know? Sounds a whole lot better! Plus I added the E on the end before the C#, sounds
fuller that way. Enjoy!
[Chorus]
C#
Born under a bad sign
I been down since I begin to crawl
G# F# E C#
If it wasn't for bad luck, I wouldn't have no luck at all
[Verse 1]
C#
Hard luck and trouble is my only friend
I been on my own ever since I was ten
[Chorus]
C#
Born under a bad sign
I been down since I begin to crawl
G# F# E C#
If it wasn't for bad luck, I wouldn't have no luck at all
[Verse 2]
C#
I can't read, I didn't know how to write
My whole life has been one big fight
[Chorus]
C#
Born under a bad sign
I been down since I begin to crawl
G# F# E C#
If it wasn't for bad luck, I wouldn't have no luck at all
That ain't no lie!
[Solo]
C#
G# C#
You know wasn't for bad luck I wouldn't have no kind-a luck
G# C# E C#
If it wasn't for real bad luck, I wouldn't have no luck at all
[Verse 3]
C#
You know wine and women is all I crave
A big legged woman is gonna carry me to my grave
[Chorus]
C#
Born under a bad sign
I been down since I begin to crawl
G# C# E C#
If it wasn't for bad luck, I wouldn't have no luck at all

The same thing was going on with me. I was doing the lead in C# and the tune in D.....your version worked great, thanks for taking the time to do it. Plus this makes playing along with the video sound right.

These chords in C# are not that hard. Also good chance to learn some easy barre chords and the cool move from Ab to Gb. Good work.
