1.	[C}Pa and Ma and Sis and Jimmy
Went [F]out for a drive and some [G]drunken lawyer [C]hit 'em
Every[F]body but the [G]lawyer [C]died.
[C]Pa had lots of debts so I went and sold the [F]farm
Now I'm living in a [G]tenement and I'm [C]starvin'
I've got [F]rat bites [G]on my [C]arms.

Chorus
	Yeah, but [G]life could be worse, things could get bad
	[C]I'm lucky I guess to re[F]member what I [G]had, ohh [C]

(Guitar riff)

2.	[C]Waiting in the line one day for a[F]bit (x02210@1)of soup and [G]bread
I met miss [C]Alicia and [F]this is [G]what she [C]said
"Keep your chin up Bobby, [F]smile when you talk"
and [G]then she went [C]away now,
she [F]went away with [G]Pa's gold [C]watch.

Chorus 2
	Yeah, but [G]life could be worse, things could get bad
	[C]I'm lucky I guess to re[F]member what I [G]had, ohh [C]
	[C]I'm lucky I guess to re[F]member [G]what I [C]had.

(Guitar riff)

3.	[C]Now I'm working out on Davie Street
For a [F]man called Eddie [G]Bones, I give him half of [C]what I make
And [F]he leaves [G]me a[C]lone.
I don't deal no rough trade, like the [F]corner cowboys [G]do
I'm a temporary [C]resident of [F]Lonely [G]Aven[C]ue.

Chorus 3
	Yeah, but [G]life could be worse, things could get bad
	Life could be worse, life could be worse!
	[C]I'm lucky I guess to re[F]member what I [G]had, ohh [C]
	[C]I'm lucky I guess to re[F]member what I [G]had, ohh [C]
	[C]I'm lucky I guess to re[F]member [G]what I [C]had.
