When a man has got the blues and feels discouraged

        G                Bm              A
And has nothing else but trouble all his life

         D              Bm           D     D Bm
But he's just an honest man like any other

Living in a world that's tearing at his mind

If he's sick and tired of life and takes to drinking

If he stays out late at night because he's troubled

     G                 Bm                 A
Or because his home is not what it should be

       D                 Bm             D        D Bm                
Have a smile for him wherever you might meet him

        D                 Bm                  A
It will help him find the right way don't you see?

      D                 Bm             D    D Bm                
If he gambles when he's in the town or city

Tell him what he ought to do to win the round

Always lift him up and never knock him down

A     D                  Bm            D         D Bm                
If he has no friends and everything's against him

        G              Bm                A
If he's failed in everything that he has tried

       D                 Bm                D     D Bm                
Try to lift his load and help him bear his burden

And when this world has turned its back against him

Always lift him up and never knock him down
Bm A D 2x Set8
