Chords in this song

Strum
D-DU-UDU
 (with harmonica)
 x2
When  a man has got the blues and feels discouraged
And  has nothing else but trouble all his life
But  he's just an honest man like any other
Living  in a world that's tearing at his mind
If  he's sick and tired of life and takes to drinking
Do  not pass him by don't greet him with a frown
Do  not fail to lend your hand and try to help him
Always  lift him up and never  knock him down
 x2 (with harmonica)
If  he stays out late at night because he's troubled
Or  because his home is not what it should be
Have  a smile for him wherever you might meet him
It  will help him find the right way don't you see
If  he gambles when he's in the town or city
Tell  him what he ought to do to win the round
Do  not fail to lend your hand to show him pity
Always  lift him up and never  knock him down
 x3 (with harmonica)
If  he has no friends and everything's against him
If  he's failed in everything he has tried
Try  to lift his load and help him bear his burden
Let  him know that you are walking by his side
If  he feels that all is lost and he has fallen
Help  to place this poor man's feet on solid ground
And  when this world has turned its back against him
Always  lift him up and never  knock him down
 x2 (with harmonica)
