[Verse] Both Guitars
C E7/B A
Once I lived the life of a millionaire
Dm A7 Dm Fig. I
Spent all my money, didn't have any care
F F#dim C Fig. II A
Took all my friends out for a mighty good time
D7 D7/F# G7
We bought bootleg liquor, champagne, and wine
C E7/B A
Then I began to fall so low
Dm A7 Dm Fig. I
Lost all my good friends, had nowhere to go
F F#dim C Fig. II A
I get my hands on a dollar again
D7 D7/F# G7
I'm gonna hang on to it till that eagle grins
[Chorus] Both Guitars
C E7 A/G
Cause nobody knows you
Dm A7 Dm Fig. I
When you're down and out
F F# C Fig. II A/G
In your pocket, not one penny
D7 D7/F# G7
And as for friends, you don't have any
[Verse] Both Guitars
C E7 A/G
When you get back up on your feet again
Dm A7 Dm Fig. I
Everybody wants to be your long lost friend
F F# C Fig. II A/G
Said its strange without any doubt
D7 D7/F# G7
Nobody knows you when you're down and out
[Solo] Guitar II (Plays Verse Chord Progression twice)
