Chords

[Verse]
D                       E
If there's anything in this world you want

G                       D       A
Better go for yourself

D                                       E
Learn to pick it up with your own two hands

G                               D       A
Don't count on somebody else
[Chorus]
G                                       A       G  A  Bm
If there's a dream that you are working on

                        Bm A G
Don't be surprised

G                               A               G  A   Bm
If any old thing that you're counting on

                        Bm A G
Just suddenly dies
[Verse]
D                               E
Got to plan in advance what you know you'll need

G                       D       A
And carry it up on your back

D                               E
Got to keep the things you need really close at hand

G                       D       A
And tote them in your bag
[Chorus]
G                               A               G  A   Bm
When you're alone be ready for rain to fall

                        Bm A G
On a sunny day

G                               A               G  A   Bm
If ends just meet be ready to go outside

                        Bm A G
And break a leg
[Verse]
D                               E
You may as well get it straight before you start

G                       D
You've got a general plan

D                               E
To walk a road here to there but be prepared

G                       D       A
To dig it where you land
[Chorus]
G                               A               G  A   Bm
If lady luck supposed to come across

                        Bm A G
She won't come through

G                               A               G  A   Bm
If there's the slightest doubt things could go wrong

                        Bm A G
It's bound to fall on you
[Verse]
D                               E
Oh I know it's nice to think that things work out

G                       D       A
And we'll all make our goal

D                               E
But I think a man is wise to only count upon

G                       D       A
What his own two hands can hold
[Chorus]
G                               A                       G  A   Bm
If by some chance your world should turn on you

                        Bm A G
Come a tumblin down

G                               A                       G  A   Bm
You'll be at the place that I was at

                        Bm A G
When I wrote this song
