Metallica

[Instrumental Intro]

[Verse 1]
Luck (luck, luck)
Runs (runs, runs)
Out (out, out)

Crawling from the wreckage one more time
This map is teared, can't read the signs
Boulevard is rusted, hard to turn
On the path of destruction, feel it burn

[Pre-Chorus]
Feel safe
In the danger
Feel good
In the bad
Got the burning
Got the speed
Lose your turn
You crash and burn
You walk away

[Chorus]
'Cause it ain't no good when there's nothing
Ain't no good when you can't go wrong
Crash and burn and you walk away
How many times can I hear you say
Ain't no good when there's nothing
Ain't no good when you can't go wrong
Luck. Runs. Out
You crawl back in
But your luck runs out

[Verse 2]
Luck (luck, luck)
Runs (runs, runs)
Out (out, out)

In love with my struggle
And in love with my pain
Much needed to keep me down again
Don't allow myself to feel too good
Unworthy of me couldn't if I could

[Pre-Chorus]
Feel safe
In the danger
Feel good
In the bad
Got the burning
Got the speed
Lose your turn
You crash and burn
You walk away

[Chorus]
'Cause it ain't no good when there's nothing
Ain't no good when you can't go wrong
Crash and burn and you walk away
How many times can I hear you say
Ain't no good when there's nothing
Ain't no good when you can't go wrong
Luck. Runs. Out
You crawl back in
But your luck runs out

[Bridge]
So you crawl back in
Deep in your obsession
Sent to crash and burn
This is your confession

[Chorus]
'Cause it ain't no good when there's nothing
Ain't no good when you can't go wrong
Crash and burn and you walk away
How many times can I hear you say
Ain't no good when there's nothing
Ain't no good when you can't go wrong
Luck. Runs. Out
You crawl back in
But your luck runs out

Like Black Sabbath and Iron Maiden before, Metallica has managed to transcend the genre from which it was originated. To their metal fanbase they are considered one of the Big Four bands of thrash metal, alongside Megadeth, Anthrax and Slayer; however Metallica is also one of the most commercially successful bands in all of rock music, having sold 110 million records including the 16x platinum Metallica, which stands as both the highest selling metal album of all time and most successful album of the past 25 years.

Metallica was formed in 1981 in Los Angeles after drummer Lars Ulrich placed an advert in the classifieds newspaper The Recycler, which was answered by singer/rhythm guitarist James Hetfield. They were soon joined by lead guitarist Dave Mustaine, who later formed Megadeth after being kicked out of the band because of his substance and alchohol abuse, and bassist Ron McGovney, a childhood friend of Hetfield. These two early members were replaced with Cliff Burton (who relocated the band to San Francisco) and ex-Exodus lead guitarist, Kirk Hammett to form the band’s classic line-up.

The band released three albums, 1983’s Kill ‘Em All, 1984’s Ride The Lightning and 1986’s Master of Puppets before the tragic and untimely death of Cliff Burton on September 27th, 1986.
