Sometimes the 4th fret G string note in the E chord can be hammered on.

Often times he will add the third fret of the B string to the E chord to give a different tone,
but that isn't necessary.

[Intro]
E   A B   E   x2

[Verse 1]
E            B*
  So I'm down and so I'm out
A               B
  But so are many others
E            B*
  So I feel like tryin' to hide
A                    B
  My head 'neath these covers
A                Abm
  Life is like the seasons
      A      A*        B
After winter comes the spring
E                  B*
  So I'll keep this smile awhile
    A          B       E
And see what tomorrow brings

E   A B   E

[Verse 2]
E              B*
  I've been told and I believe
A                  B
  That life is meant for livin'
E                 B*
  And even when my chips are low
A                           B
  There's still some left for givin'
A                Abm
  I've been many places
      A      A*     B
Maybe not as far as you
E                 B*
  So I think I'll stay awhile
    A          B            E
And see if some dreams come true

E   A B [Riff] E  x2

[Bridge]
A                     Abm
  There isn't much that I have learned
Dbm        B              E        E7
  Through all my foolish years
A                     Abm           Dbm
  Except that life keeps runnin' in cycles
A                                   B
  First there's laughter, then those tears

[Verse 3]
E                B*
  But I'll keep my head up high
A                   B      [Riff]
  Although I'm kinda tired
E                  B*
  My gal just up and left last week
A             B
  Friday I got fired
A                  Abm
  You know it's almost funny
        A          A*         B
But things can't get worse than now
E                B*
  So I'll keep on tryin' to sing
    A               B        E
But please, just don't ask me how

E   A B [Riff] E  x3
E   A B
