I can't lose what I never had
D7 G7
You can't take what I ain't got
D7 G7
When I'm happy, you won't make me sad
D7
Depending on you all
G7
Well I'm not
G7
Cause I started out with nothing
A7 D7
and I've still got most of it left
When I'm down I just get up
When I'm down well I stand up
Been down many times well you know it's true
Haven't had a red dime between me and you
Cause I started out with nothing
and I've still got most of it left (x3)
[D7 G7] Repeatedly while rambling random stuff
G7
Cause I started out with nothing
A7 D7
and I've still got most of it left (x3)
And if all fell apart today
I could just walk
Get on down the street
I ain't worried where I'm going to sleep
I can always find some food to eat
Cause I started out with nothing
and I've still got most of it left (x3)
