Tooltip box showing upwards instead of bottom

Question

This is my code

.tooltip1 {
  position: relative;
  display: inline-block;
}


/* Tooltip text */

.tooltip1 .tooltiptext1 {
  visibility: hidden;
  width: 270px;
  background-color: #555;
  color: #fff;
  text-align: center;
  padding: 5px 0;
  border-radius: 6px;
  /* Position the tooltip text */
  position: absolute;
  z-index: 1;
  bottom: 125%;
  left: 50%;
  margin-left: -60px;
  /* Fade in tooltip */
  opacity: 0;
  transition: opacity 0.3s;
}


/* Tooltip arrow */

.tooltip1 .tooltiptext1::after {
  content: "";
  position: absolute;
  top: 100%;
  left: 50%;
  margin-left: -5px;
  border-width: 5px;
  border-style: solid;
  border-color: #555 transparent transparent transparent;
}


/* Show the tooltip text when you mouse over the tooltip container */

.tooltip1:hover .tooltiptext1 {
  visibility: visible;
  opacity: 1;
}

<div class="tooltip">Hover over me
  <span class="tooltiptext">Tooltip text</span>
</div>

How do I position it such that it open in bottom. Also as it is opening on top and if I add too much data in span then it goes above page and it cant be scrolled so some part is not visible.Is there a fix to this also in tooltip?

Try this,

change this styles,

.tooltip .tooltiptext {
  top: 150%; // bottom: 125%; given already
}

.tooltip .tooltiptext::after {
  bottom: 100%; //top: 100%; given already
}

.tooltip {
  position: relative;
  display: inline-block;
}

.tooltip .tooltiptext {
  visibility: hidden;
  width: 120px;
  background-color: black;
  color: #fff;
  text-align: center;
  border-radius: 6px;
  padding: 5px 0;
  position: absolute;
  z-index: 1;
  top: 150%;
  left: 50%;
  margin-left: -60px;
}

.tooltip .tooltiptext::after {
  content: "";
  position: absolute;
  bottom: 100%;
