Nobody Knows You When Your Down And Out - Scrapper Blackwell
(original by Jimmy Cox)
[D]Once I lived the [F#7]life of a [B7}millionaire
[Em]Spending my {D#o]money and I [Em}did not care
[G]Took all my [G#o] friends out [D]for [Db]a [C]good [B7}time
[E7}Buying bootleg liquor, [A7]champagne and wine
[D]Lord, but I got [F#7]busted and I fell so [B7}low
[Em]Didn't have no {D#o]money and [Em}nowhere to go
[G]It's mighty [G#o]strange, [D]with[Db]out [C]a [B7}doubt
[E7}Nobody wants you when you're down
[E7}I mean, nobody wants you [A7]when you're down
[D]But if I ever [F#7]get back on my [B7}feet again
[Em]I know I will {D#o]find all my [Em}long lost friends
[G]Lord, it's mighty [G#o]strange, [D]with[Db]out [C]a [B7}doubt
[E7}No-one wants to know you [A7]when you're down
[D]If I ever get my [F#7]hands on a [B7}dollar again
[Em]I'm gonna {D#o]hang on to it till [Em}that old eagle grins
[G]It's mighty [G#o]strange, [D]with[Db]out [C]a [B7}doubt
[E7}Nobody knows me [A7]when I'm down and out
[[D]Once I lived the [F#7]life of a [B7}millionaire
[Em]Spending my {D#o]money and I [Em}did not care
[G]Took all my [G#o] friends out [D]for [Db]a [C]good [B7}time
[E7}Buying bootleg liquor, [A7]champagne and wine
[D]But I got [F#7]busted and I fell so [B7}low
[Em]Didn't have no {D#o]money and [Em}nowhere to go
[G]It's mighty [G#o]strange, [D]with[Db]out [C]a [B7}doubt
[E7}Nobody wants you when you're down
[E7}I mean, nobody wants you [A7]when you're down
The chord scheme goes like this:

/ G / G#o / D Db C / B7 /
/ E7 / E7 / A7 / A7 /
To say that Scrapper Blackwell (1903-1962) was a remarkable guitarist
is an understatement. I never heard anyone play the guitar like he did.
Listen to him playing this blues classic on Mr. Scrapper's Blues (1962),
and hear what he did with this scheme.
Do you thinks it sounds quite a lot like Eric Clapton on Unplugged
(1992)? Not a bad word about Eric!
I arranged the text myself from Blackwell and the original by
Jimmy Cox, as I cannot understand all of what Mr. Scrapper sings. If
anyone can wtite down Blackwell's lyrics, please let me know.
