Verse 1
[A]So I'm down and [E]so I'm out
But [D]so are many [E]others
[A]So I feel like t[E]ryin' to hide
My h[D]ead 'neath these c[E]overs[E7]
[D]Life is like the s[A]easons
After [G]winter comes the [E]spring
[A]So I'll keep thi[E]s smile awhile
[D]And see what [E]tomorrow b[A]rings
Verse 2
[A]I've been told and [E]I believe
That[D] life is meant for l[E]ivin'
[A]And even when my[E] chips are low
There's s[D]till some left for g[E]ivin'[E7]
[D]I've been many p[A]laces
Maybe[G] not as far as yo[E]u
[A]So I think I'll [E]stay awhile
[D]And see if so[E]me dreams come tr[A]ue[A7]
Bridge
[D]There isn't much that [A]I have learned
[D]Through all my foolish [A]years
[D]Except that life keeps [A]runnin' in [F#m]cycles
[B7]First there's laughter, then those t[E]ears
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
