[C]Once I lived [E7]the life of a [A]millionaire[A7],
[Dm]Spent all my [A7]money, [Dm]I just did not care.
[F]Took all my friends out for a [C]mighty good [A7]time,
[D7]Bought bootleg liquor ,
[G7]champagne and wine.
{comment: Verse 2}
[C]Then I [E7]began to [A]fall so [A7]low,
[Dm]Lost all my [A7]good friends, [Dm]I had nowhere to go.
[F]I get my hands on a [C]dollar [A7]again,
[D7]Gonna hang on to it [G7]till that old eagle grins.

Because, [C][E7]nobody [A]knows [A7]you
[Dm]When you're [A7]down and [Dm]out.
[F]In your pocket, [C]not one [A7]penny,
[D7]And as for friends,
[G7]you don't have many.

{comment: Verse 3}
[C]When you [E7]finally get back up on [A]your feet [A7]again,
[Dm]Everybody [A7]wants to be your [Dm]old long-lost friend.
[F]I said it's mighty strange,[C] without any [A7]doubt,
[D7]Nobody knows you [G7]when you're down and out.
