Life Has Its Little Ups And Downs Chords & Lyrics - Johnny Cash

[G]I don?t know how to tell her
[C]That I didn?t get that raise in pay to[G]day
Cause I [F]know how much she wanted the [C]dress
In Bakers window and it [G]breaks my heart
[C]To tell her have to [G]wait
[C]And cancel [G]all her plans she [C]made to cele[G]brate
But I just [F]know that she can take it
With a [C]smile and not a [G]frown

Cause knows that life has its little ups and downs

Like ponies on a merry-go-round
[G7]And no [F]one grabs the brass ring every [C]time
But she don?t [G]mind she wears a [D]gold ring
On her [C]finger and it?s [G]mine

Those new house plans we?ve had so long
[C]I guess will gather dust another [G]year
And the [F]daffodils are blooming
That she [C]planted way last fall
Upon the [G]hill and [C]over by the [G]gate
[C]God knows I [G]hate to say a[C]gain well have to [G]wait
But I just [F]know that she can take it
With a [C]smile and not a [G]frown

Cause knows that life has its little ups and downs

Like ponies on a merry-go-round
[G7]And no [F]one grabs the brass ring every [C]time
But she don?t [G]mind she wears a [D]gold ring
On her [C]finger and it?s [G]mine
She wears a g[D]old ring On her [C]finger and it?s m[G]ine
