Lyrics

(G)Hey, look me o ver!

(B7)Lend (F#m7)me an (Ddim)ear!

(E7)Fresh out of clo ver, (Am)mort gaged up to here.

But (D7)don’t (Am)pass the (F)plate, (D7)folks, (G)don’t (B7)pass the (E7)cup; I (A7)fig ure when ev er you’re down and out, the (D7)on ly way is up!

And I’ll be (G)up like a rose bud, (B7)high (F#m7)on the (Ddim)vine; (E7)Don’t thumb your nose, bud, (Am)take a tip from mine; I’m a (Cmaj7)lit tle bit short of the (F9)el bow room, but (G)let me get me (E7)some.

And look (Am7)out, world, (D7)here I (G)come!

(G)Hey, look me o ver!

(B7)Lend (F#m7)me an (Ddim)ear!

(E7)Fresh out of clo ver, (Am)mort gaged up to here.

But (D7)don’t (Am)pass the (F)plate, (D7)folks, (G)don’t (B7)pass the (E7)cup; I (A7)fig ure when ev er you’re down and out, the (D7)on ly way is up!

And I’ll be (G)up like a rose bud, (B7)high (F#m7)on the (Ddim)vine; (E7)Don’t thumb your nose, bud, (Am)take a tip from mine; I’m a (Cmaj7)lit tle bit short of the (F9)el bow room, but (G)let me get me (E7)some.

Hear me (Am7)shout, world, (D7)here I (G)come!

(G)come!
