Verse 1
A E
So I'm down and so I'm out
D E
But so are many others

My head 'neath these covers

Life is like the seasons

And see what tomorrow brings
Verse 2
A E
I've been told and I believe

There's still some left for givin'
D A
I've been many places
G E
Maybe not as far as you

And see if some dreams come true

D A
There isn't much that I have learned
D A
Through all my foolish years

First there's laughter, then those tears
Verse 3 (play as the 1st one)
But I'll keep my head up high
Although I'm kinda tired
My gal just up and left last week
Friday I got fired
You know it's almost funny
But things can't get worse than now
So I'll keep on tryin' to sing
But please, just don't ask me how
