[Verse 1]
[Eb]Ah,[Edim][Fm][G][C][F]
once [Bb]I
lived the [D]life of a [G]millionaire
You [C]know, I spent all my
[G]good time money
people [Cm]I didn't care
[Eb]Takin' my friends ou[F]t
for a mighty [G]fine time
I'm [C]a born bootleg whistler, b[F]aby,
[G]good time champagne [F]wine.
[Bb]Oh, then[Dm] I began[D] t[G]o fall so low.
[C]You know, I didn't hav[D]e me a friend.
I had [Cm]no place t[C]o go.
If I [G]ever [Eb]get my h[F]ands on a dollar a[D]gain,[G]
I'm going [C]to tease it and squeeze
it till the good [F]time eagle [C]grins.
[F]Cau[Bb]se nob[G]ody kno[D]ws [G]you,
[C]honey,
[F]when you're down and [C]out, yeah
[Eb]In your po[A]cket[C#dim]s, mmm,[F]
[G]not a penny
[C]Ask all your fine friends,
baby, oh, look around
[F]Oh,[C] but whe[Bb]n you[D] get bac[G]k up
on your loving feet again
[C]You know everybody gon[G]na come up,
slap you on the back [Cm]and say
Hey remem[C]ber me friend,
[Cm]it's[Eb] a crying sham[Edim]e
[F]without [G]a doubt
[C]Nobody knows you
when [F]you're down and [Bb]out[D][G][C][G]
[Cm][Eb][Edim][F][F#dim]
[G][C][F#dim][F][Bb][D][G]
[Cm][G][Cm][Eb][Edim][F]
[G][C][F]
[Cm]Oh, [C]cause [D]nobody k[G]nows you
[Cm]Oh, [Eb]honey, when [G]you're down [C]and out
Oh, [Cm]dear.
[Eb]In your lo[Edim]vin' pockets,
[F]oh, [G]not a penny.
[C]As for all your fine fare with the friends,
[F]baby, you can't find a damn [Bb]one.
But when [D]you, oh,
[G]you get back up on your lovin' fee[C]t again,
you know everybody [G]gonna come up,
slap you on the [C]back, and say,
[Cm]hey, give me [C]some money, [G]friend.
[Eb]It's a cryin' sham[C#dim]e without [F]a doubt.[G]
[C]Ain't nobody use you baby,
[G]bea[C]t you or abuse you baby
Nobody wants you
when you're [F]down and [Bb]out
[G]I mean, n[C]obody wants you, h[F]oney,
when you're down and [Bbm]out
[Bb][Eb]
