Verse 1
A augmentedA E MajorE
So I'm down and so I'm out
D MajorD E MajorE
But so are many others
A augmentedA E MajorE
So I feel like tryin' to hide
D MajorD E MajorE E7E7
My head 'neath these covers
D MajorD A augmentedA
Life is like the seasons
G+G E MajorE
After winter comes the spring
A augmentedA E MajorE
So I'll keep this smile awhile
D MajorD E MajorE A augmentedA
And see what tomorrow brings
Verse 2
A augmentedA E MajorE
I've been told and I believe
D MajorD E MajorE
That life is meant for livin'
A augmentedA E MajorE
And even when my chips are low
D MajorD E MajorE E7E7
There's still some left for givin'
D MajorD A augmentedA
I've been many places
G+G E MajorE
Maybe not as far as you
A augmentedA E MajorE
So I think I'll stay awhile
D MajorD E MajorE A augmentedA A7A7
And see if some dreams come true
Bridge
D MajorD A augmentedA
There isn't much that I have learned
D MajorD A augmentedA
Through all my foolish years
D MajorD A augmentedA F# minorF#m
Except that life keeps runnin' in cycles
B7B7 E MajorE
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
