"Lucky Now" is a song by alt country singer-songwriter Ryan Adams, and the lead single from his studio album Ashes & Fire.

According to Adams, the single is based upon "my time in New York in my twenties".

According to Adams, an early version of the song was about Cardinals bassist Chris Feinstein, who died in December 2009.

It's a very strange concept, but when I listen to songs, I need to feel the narrator's shoes rubbing against my feet, you know?

"[1]Adams elaborated further, "It's the second draft of the song that I wrote for Chris Feinstien.
