NOBODY KNOWS YOU WHEN YOU'RE DOWN AND OUT
Jimmy Cox (and Derek and the Dominos and Eric Clapton Unplugged)

C                       E            A7
Once I lived the life of a millionaire
Dm                      A7               Dm        A7
Spending all my money didn't have any cares
F                       D7                       C           A7
Took all my friends out for a mighty good time
C                                               G
We bought bootleg liquor, champagne and wine

C              E      A7
Then I began to fall so low
Dm                   A7                     Dm          A7
Lost all my good friends, had no where to go
F                D7              C      A7
If I get my hands on a dollar again
C                                         G
I'll hang on to it, till that old eagle grins


Chorus:
C                E         A7
Because nobody loves you
Dm                 A7      Dm    A7
When you're down and out
F               D7    C         A7
In your pocket, not one penny
C                                   G
And as for friends, you don't have many.

C                     E                        A7
When you get back on your feet again
Dm                A7                  Dm           A7
Everybody wants to be your long lost friend
F             D7         C               A7
I said it straight, without any doubt
C                                                 G 
Nobody knows you, when your down and out.

Lord, soon as I get up on my feet again 
Everybody wants to be my long-lost friend 
It's mighty strange, without a doubt 
Nobody wants you when you're down and out. 
That's what I mean  when you're down and out.
