[Intro]
Am           F

[Verse]
C
I used to think that it
was me against the world,
but it wasn't

 Am7
Thought drinkin' from a glass
half empty made it better,
        F
but it doesn't

Funny all the things you realize
          C
When that 20/20 hindsight
vision opens up your eyes

[Chorus]
Am
Now my outlook on life
    F
Is different than it used to be
         Dm7         C
Yeah, my outlook is someone's
up there
 F                G
Lookin' down and lookin'
         Am  Am
 out for me

[Verse]
 C
Something in my ramblin'
soul said

I had to go toe to toe
            Am7
with the devil

Fell in love with a gypsy girl,

 said she couldn't risk
           F
 it on a rebel

At least not one that doesn't
 have a cause
     C
And I'll admit, I guess back
then that's all I really was
[Chorus]
Am
Now my outlook on life

    F
Is different than it used to be

         Dm7         C
Yeah, my outlook is someone's
 up there
 F                G
Lookin' down and lookin'
         C
 out for me

[solo]
C*  Am  Am*
 F  F  G  G

[Break]
        Dm7
There's so many crossroads
you come to
                        F
And you can't put your finger on

Why you went the way you did,
and then

[Verse]
 C
You look up and here you
 are on the flip
side of crazy

      Am7
Something more than lucky stars
you thank when you kiss your baby
 F
Always believed in God and
 angels in the sky
     C
But never thought that
 I deserved an angel by my side

[Chorus]
Am
Now my outlook on life
    F
Is different than it used to be

          Dm7        C
Yeah, my outlook is someone's
 up there
 F                G
Lookin' down and lookin'
         C
out for me
        Am
Now my outlook on life
    F
is different than it used to be
          Dm7        C
Yeah, my outlook is someone's
 up there
 F                G
Lookin' down and lookin'
         Am
out for me

[Outro]
 Am7      F
Yeah ah, lookin' down,
 Dm         G      C   C
Lookin' ou-out for me
