[Intro]
F  F
 
     Am           C
Wake up, put your shoes on
        F                     E
Take a breath of the northern air
                F
And rub those eyes
    Dm                        G
Genuflect beneath the starry skies
 
  Am                   C
Before you climb the mountain
           F                E
First the foothills must appear
                F
Step high and light
                 Dm                 G
And take up your staff and shining armor
 
Fmaj7
(Chin up, chin up)
Em7
You don't really have a problem
Fmaj7
(Chin up, chin up)
        Em7        G7
In your hour of despair
 
    C                   Em
And smile when you're down and out
(Find something inside you)
C                  Em
Smile when you're down and out
(Find something inside you)
F
Smile…
 
    Am            C
The stars on the horizon
            F                    E
Stretch as far as the eyes can see
           F       Dm                            G
They represent the souls of those like you and me
 
    C                   Em
And smile when you're down and out
(Find something inside you)
C                 Em
Smile when you're down and out
(Find something inside you)
F
Smile…

You don't really have a problem

(Chin up, chin up)
        Em7        G7
In your hour of despair
 
    C                  Em
And smile when you're down and out
(Find something inside you)
[Sky is falling down]
C                 Em
Smile when you're down and out
(Find something inside you)

Dallesportian is right about the Em in the chorus. In the verse it's D minor, not D. The pre-chorus, try Fmaj7 Em7 Fmaj7 Em7 G7 (thanks to Erik Ostrom for that).

Very nice, but I think the G in the chorus should be an Em.

I'd say this is pretty close to being perfect, 5 stars from me! Thanks!
