Cold Hard World

C D G C C D G C

[Chorus]
  C         D
It's a cold hard world
        G         C
It's a cold hard world
        C         D
It's a cold hard world
  G
Oh no

[Verse 1]
    C              D
I heard Red Donley say
       G            C
It was on the news today
        C         D
It's a cold hard world
         G        C
It's a cold hard world

[Verse 2]
      C                  D
It's hiking across the country
        G              C
Looking for a bite to eat
             C              D
You'd be surprised at the animals
           G          C
And the people you'd meet

[Verse 3]
  C                 D
Rolling down that highway
       G                   C
With eyes fixed straight ahead
               C        D
They have a caravan of cars
     G        C
To bury the dead

[Verse 4]
     C                 D
And coke cans and pop bottles
           G                  
Lined the streets like flowers 
   C
instead
          C             D
And this guy gave me a ride
I said this industrial waste sure 
 G
stinks
     C                  D
He said he likes that smell
          G                 C
'cause that's the smell of money
           C                     G
I said "well, mister money stinks, 
too."


[Chorus]
         C        D
It's a cold hard world
         G         C
It's a cold hard world
         C         D
It's a cold hard world
  G
Oh no

 [Verse 5]
C          D
I met a fireman
              G                 
He said you never forget burning 
   C
flesh
           C     D
And the librarian said
                G
Do you have a card here?
                C               D
I said I been coming here for weeks
               G           C
Don't you recognize me by now
           C       D
I checked out a million books
                     G
Just to get you to notice me


[Chorus]
        C          D
It's a cold hard world
         G        C
It's a cold hard world
         C         D
It's a cold hard world
  G
Oh no

 [Verse 6]
            C            D
Somebody's house burned down
              G         C
Somebody's hubcap fell off
             C       D
Somebody's soul got lost
             G        C
Somebody's heart got broke

 [Verse 7]
    C               D
I heard Red Donley say
        G            C
It was on the news today
         C         D
It's a cold hard world
         G         C
It's a cold hard world
