[Verse 1]
A               E
So I'm down and so I'm out
    D           E
But so are many others
A               E
So I feel like tryin' to hide
    D                 E          E7
My head 'neath these covers
D                 C#m
Life is like the seasons
      Bm               E
After winter comes the spring
A                 E
So I'll keep this smile awhile
D            E         A
And see what tomorrow brings
 
 
[Verse 2]
A                  E
I've been told and I believe
    D                   E
That life is meant for livin'
A               E
And even when my chips are low
         D                   E          E7
There's still some left for givin'
D               C#m
I've been many places
     Bm               E
Maybe not as far as you
A               E
So I think I'll stay awhile
D            E               A        A7
And see if some dreams come true
 
 
[Bridge]
D                     A
There isn't much that I have learned
D                      A
Through all my foolish years
D                      A          F#m
Except that life keeps runnin' in cycles
B7                                  E
First there's laughter, then those tears
 
 
[Verse 3]
A                E
But I'll keep my head up high
    D              E
Although I'm kinda tired
   A               E
My gal just up and left last week
 D            E        E7
Friday I got fired
D                    C#m
You know it's almost funny
    Bm                          E
But things can't get worse than now
A               E
So I'll keep on tryin' to sing
D            E                A
But please, just don't ask me now

I get that it's an old tab and all, but to anyone interested: The part in the verse where he sings "Life is like the season" I find the more accurate chords to be D C#m Bm E. And also Capo on 4th?
