TITLE: I've Got a Golden Ticket
Lyrics and Chords
[Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory]
I never thought my life could be
Anything but catastrophe
But suddenly I begin to see
A bit of good luck for me
/ D G / A D / GD AD / E A /
'Cause I've got a golden ticket
I've got a golden twinkle in my eye
/ G D G D / G D B7 E /
I never had a chance to shine
Never a happy song to sing
But suddenly half the world is mine
What an amazing thing
'Cause I've got a golden ticket
I've got a golden sun up in the sky
{Bridge}
I never thought I'd see the day
When I would face the world and say
Good morning, look at the sun
I never thought that I would be
Slap in the lap of luxury
'Cause I'd have said it couldn't be done
But it can be done
/ G - / / D - Am D7 / G - / / D B7 A7 - / E7 A7 /
I never dreamed that I would climb
Over the moon in ecstasy
But nevertheless, it's there that I'm
Shortly about to be
'Cause I've got a golden ticket
I've got a golden chance to make my way
And with a golden ticket, it's a golden day
/ G D G D / G D B7 E / - - G A D - /
{Bridge}
I never dreamed that I would climb
Over the moon in ecstasy
But nevertheless, it's there that I'm
Shortly about to be
'Cause I've got a golden ticket
'Cause I've got a golden ticket
I've got a golden chance to make my way
And with a golden ticket, it's a golden day
/ G D - / / G D B7 E / - - G A D - /
