C                 E7
Once I lived the life of a 
 A7
Millionaire
Dm               A7
   Spent all my money
        Dm
Didn’t have any care
F               Gb
  Took all my friends out 
    C              A7
For a mighty good time
D7                       D7/F#
   We bought bootleg liquor
G7
   Champagne and wine

C           E7         A7
  Then I began to fall    so low
Dm              A7         
   Lost all my good friends
     Dm
Had nowhere to go
F              Gb         C       A7
  If I get my hands on a dollar again
D7               D7/F#
   I’ll hang on to it 
          G7
‘til that old eagle grins

Because

C    E7   A7
  Nobody knows you
Dm              A7      Dm 
   When you're down and out
F          Gb        C          A7
  In your pocket,   not one penny
D7              D7/F#
   And as for friends 
     G7
You don't have many 

C           E7
  When you get back
         A7
On your feet again
Dm            A7
   Everybody wants to be your 
 Dm
Long lost friend
F              Gb
  I said it straight
             A7
Without any doubt
D7               D7/F#
   Nobody knows you
             G7
When you're down and out
