Next time your found, with your chin on the ground,

There a lot to be learned, so look  around.

Just what makes that little old ant. Think he'll move that rubber tree plant? 
C       C7       F  Cdim  G7      G6     G/B   C 
Anyone knows an ant can't move a rubber tree plant, 
    C7        F          Cdim      C 
But he's got high hopes, he's got high hopes, 
Am7       D7  Am7    D7  Am7     G 
He's got high apple pie, in the sky hopes.

Just remember that ant. Oops there goes another rubber tree plant. 
C                            Gdim 
When troubles call, and your back's to the wall, 
         Dm7                G7  G6    G/B   C 
There a lot to be learned, that wall could fall. 
C          Am7        Dm7        F              Dm7           G7     C6         C 
Once there was a silly old ram. Thought he'd punch a hole in a dam; 
C                   C7       F     Cdim    G7           G6      G/B   C 
No one could make that ram scram  he kept buttin' that dam, 
       C7           F              Cdim                  C 
'Cause he had high hopes, he had high hopes, 
Am7      D7   Am7    D7   Am7       G 
He had high apple pie, in the sky hopes. 
   Am7  G/B                               C                       C7 
So an - y time your feelin' bad,'stead of feelin' sad, 
F      Dm7        Cdim       G           D7           Dm7     G7        C 
Just remember that ram.  Oops there goes a billion kilowatt dam.
