[Verse 1]
C                                    FYesterday I went downtown and saw an old-time picture show
C                              AmAnd the hero got a pie in the face
C                          FHe didn't like that and he stormed around the screen
C                                       C7But everybody else was laughin' in that place

[Chorus]
                      F                       CThat's cause it ain't hard to get along with somebody else's troubles
                       F                   CAnd they don't make you lose any sleep at night
Am                                        CJust as long as fate is out there bustin' somebody else's bubbles
F                     CEverything's gonna be alright
F                         CAnd everything's gonna be alright

[Verse 2]
C                             F                  CTell me, did you ever have to pay for something that you didn't do?
C                               AmAnd did you ever figure out the reason why?
C                                            FAnd when the doctor says this is gonna hurt me a lot more than this hurts you
C                               C7Did you ever figure out that that's a lie?

[Chorus]
                       F                    CHe knows it ain't too hard to get along with somebody else's troubles
                        F                   CAnd they don't make you lose any sleep at night
Am                                        CJust as long as fate is out there bustin' somebody else's bubbles
F                      CEverything is gonna be alright
F                      CAnd everything will be alright

[Verse 3]
C                                      FAnd I saw the boss come a-walkin' down along that factory line
C                                      AmHe said, "We all have to tighten up our belts."
C                                           FBut he didn't look any thinner than he did a year ago
C                                 C7And I wonder just how hungry that man felt

[Chorus]
                  F                               CBut he knows it ain't too hard to get along with somebody else's troubles
                        F                  CAnd they don't make you lose any sleep at night
Am                                        CJust as long as fate is out there bustin' somebody' else's bubbles
F                      CEverything is gonna be alright
F                       CAnd everything is gonna be alright

[Verse 4]
C                                   FAnd I asked that undertaker what it took to make him laugh
C                               AmWhen all he ever saw is people cryin'
C                                         FFirst he hands me a bunch of flowers that he'd received on my behalf
C                                       C7Said, "Steve, business just gets better all the time."

[Outro]
                 F                     CAnd it ain't too hard to get along with somebody else's troubles
                        F                  CAnd they don't make you lose any sleep at night
Am                                        CJust as long as fate is out there bustin' somebody else's bubbles
F                      CEverything is gonna be alright
F                      CAnd everything is gonna be alright
