Nobody Knows You
When You're Down and Out
Jimmy Cox
Song : E
Intro :
C E7 A7 Dm A7 Dm F F#dim7 C A7 D7 G7
C E7 A7
Once I lived the life of a millionaire,
Dm A7 Dm
Spending all my money didn't have any cares,
F F#dim7 C A
Took all my friends out for a mighty good time,
D7 G7
Bought bootleg liquor, champagne and wine.
C E7 A7
Then I began to fall so low;
Dm A7 Dm
Lost all my good friends, had nowhere to go.
F F#dim7 C A
If I get my hands on a dollar again,
D7 G7
I'm gonna hang on to it till that eagle grins.
Chorus :
C E7 A7 Dm A7 Dm
'cause nobody knows you when you're down and out;
F F#dim7 C A7
In your pocket, not one penny;
D G
And as for friends, you don't have any.
C E7 A7
when you get back on your feet again
Dm A7 Dm A7
Everybody wants to be your long-lost friend
F F#dim7 C A7
I said it straight, without any doubt
D7 G7
Nobody knows you when you're down and out.

C E7 A7 Dm A7 Dm
Nobody knows you when you're down and out
F F#dim7 C A7
In your pocket, not one penny;
D G
And as for friends, you don't have any.
C E7 A7
when you get back on your feet again
Dm A7 Dm
Everybody wants to be your long-lost friend
F F#dim7 C A7
I said it straight, without any doubt

Nobody knows you nobody knows you
G7 C
nobody knows you when you're down and out.
