[C#m]
[A#] [F#m] You up on your feet now, baby, [A] and you're leaving me all [F#m] alone, yeah.
When you know that my nose [Bm] is [A] down to the grinding stone.
[F#m] You rode this gravy train [A] since the day I met you.
[F#m] But remember what goes around [Bm] [A] also comes around [F#m] too.
Cause it's an up and [D] down [Bm] world.
[C]
[E] It's [A] an up and down [D] [A] world.
[A]
[A] Lord, [D] it might be cold [E] sometimes.
But it's an [A] up and down world.
[B] [G] [F#m] It might be nice and warm today.
[A] Tomorrow may be [D] drizzling cold.
[F#m] Saw a hobo the other day.
[Bm] [A] [A] It once had his weight in gold.
[F#m] But go ahead on, pretty baby, [A] and I'll gladly set you free.
[F#m] Cause I know that old son of a [Bm] bear [A] will one day rise and shine for me.

When you know that my [Bm] nose [A] is down to the grinding [F#m] stone.
Rode this gravy [Bm] train [F#m] [A] since the day I met you.
[F#m] But remember what goes around, [Bm] [A] well, it also comes around too.
Cause it's [D] an up and down world.
[E] It's [A] an up and [F#m] down world.

Lord, [D] it might be cold.
[Bm] [E]
But it's [A] an up and down [A] world.

You [D] might be up today and [Bm] down [E] tomorrow.

Lord, [D] it might be cold, [E] baby.
But it's an [A] up and down world.
[D] [Bm]
