[A]The[Am] Bird[D] F[Bb]lies [C]Eas[Dsus4]t[D][Am]
The [D]bird flies [G]east
The
An[D]d he pays [Am]no rental
where he [D]builds his [G]nest
And [A]I run my business i[Ebdim]dentically[D]
[Em]No a[Bbdim]sset s[F#]
No [D]capital
Nothing but me
[G]Whe[D]n your shoes need sol[A]in'
and you're [D]standin' on the town
And [Em]your girl says, [C#dim]please forget he[D]r
When you're on rock [Am]bottom
[D]an d you can't [Am]go down
[D]Any change is for the better
When your job [A]folds [D]up
and your pants wear thin
And you're [Em]down at the bottom
look[C#dim]in' up at[D] the top
When you're at [Am]zero
[D]When you're a [Am]has -been
[D]Then there's [C]nowhere to [D]go but up
[G]To [D]the man who has [Am]a plenty
And he [D]changes for the worse
So he plays a [Ebdim]losing hand
[Em]against the univ[A]erse
[D]But in winter [A]weather,
[C#dim]when the [D]leaves turn brown,
And you [Em]think of putting
[C#dim]poison in[A] your cu[D]p,

[Eb]I look at to[Fm]morrow philosophic[Dbdim]ally
[Eb]for [Fm]pretty nearl[Bb]y everything's
[Db]happ[Eb]ened to me.[Ab][Eb]

When your job [Bb]folds [Db]up,
and your [Fm]pants [Eb]wear thin,
and you're [Fm]down on the bottom
looking up at the [Eb]top.
When you're at [Bbm]zero,

[Eb]can't go this [Db]way
[Bbm]Then t[Eb]here's nowhe[Db]re
to [Eb]go but up.[Ab]
