Nobody Knows You When You're Down And Out chords by Ruth Brown

C               E          A   A7  A
Once I lived the life of a millionaire
Dm           A      Dm       A7  Dm
Spent all my money, just did not care
F            F7               C      C/B   A
Took all my friends out for a mighty good time
 D7                    G7
Bought bootleg whisky, champagne and wine
 C       E      A   A7  A
Then I began to fall so low
Dm          A                  Dm      A  Dm
Lost all my good friends, had nowhere to go
F           F7          C     C/B   A
If I get my hands on a dollar again
                    D7            G7
I'm gonna hang on to it till that eagle grins, 'cause

Refrain
C     E    A7        Dm          A7     Dm
Nobody knows you when you're down and out
  F      D7      C   C/B  A7
In your pocket, not one penny
    D              G
And as for friends, you don't have any
C                 E             A   A7   A
Then when you get back on your feet again
Dm         A                Dm   A7   Dm
Everybody wants to be your long-lost friend
 F            F7        C   C/B   A
It's mighty strange, without any doubt
D7                           G7       C
Nobody knows you when you're down and out
 G7      C           E               A   A7  A
When you finally get back upon your feet again
Dm        A                Dm     A7   Dm
Everybody wants to be your long-lost friend
      F          D7      C      C/B   A
Said it's mighty strange, without any doubt
   F    Dm7       G          C         E7
Nobody knows you when you're down and out
F           D7          C        A7
It's mighty strange, without any doubt
  F    Fdim                 G    Fdim      G       C
Nobody knows you when you're down, you're down and out
