Subject: Tab: No Body Knows you when your down and out, by Eric clapton
NOBODY KNOWS YOU WHEN YOUR DOWN AND OUT
Eric Clapton
This is a fun easy version of the song, the melody line is a bit
diferent than the Eric Clapton verson but its easy to catch on to.
C E7 A7
Once I lived the life of a millionaire
Dm A7 Dm A7 Dm
Spent all my money (lord) and I didn't care
F D7 C E7 A7
Taking my friends out for a mighty good time
D7 G7
Drinking fancy liquor, champagne and wine
But then I began to fall so low
I didn't have a dollar, I had no place to go
Well if I get my hands on a dollar again
I'll hang on to it till the eagle grins
Nobody knows you
When your down and out my friend
In my pocket I havent got a pennie
And as for friends I ain't got to many
But when I get back on my feet again
Everybody wants to be my long lost friend
It's mighty strange with out any doubt
Nobody Knows you when your down and out
X=Strum up open
V=Vibrato

Then I began to fall so low Lost all my good friens, had nowhere to go If I get my hand on a dollar again I'll hang on to it, till that old eagle grins

I had to play this song on school, and it took some time to find out how to play it.
I don't want i did it for nothing(except a good mark;)), so I shared it with you!
Listen to the song to get the rythm

Took all my friends out for a good time,
I began to fall so low,
Lost all my good friends, I did not have nowhere to go.
I get my hands on a dollar again,
I'm gonna hang on to it till that eagle grins.
'Cause no, no, nobody knows you
When you're down and out.
In your pocket, not one penny,
And as for friends, you don't have any.
When you finally get back up on your feet again,
Everybody wants to be your old long-lost friend.
Said it's mighty strange, without a doubt,
Nobody knows you when you're down and out.
When you finally get back upon your feet again,
Everybody wants to be your good old long-lost friend.
Said it's mighty strange,
Nobody knows you when you're down and out.
