Hard Times

E

[Verse 1]
  E                      
Enter a scene that defies 
    C#m
description
   E
They say to open your mind And take 
it all inside
               C#m
One click at a time
                  A
We move through fictions
And send our sisters to the 
   B
sacrifice
             A
A cruel conviction
                           B
Sinister systems keep us satisfied

These are hard times


[Chorus]
  E
I'm breathing in the oxygen
  C#m                      A
I'm holding it through hard times
    E
I'm breathing out in the ultrasound
    C#m                    A
Things come around in hard times


[Verse 2]
  E                          
Ten thousand miles of the new 
       C#m
prescriptions
Continues after the ad
                     E
So we open our mouths And take 'em 
all inside
              C#m
One pill at a time

The purist fictions
 A                             B
We send our sisters to the sacrifice

With cruel conviction
 A                            B
Sinister systems keep us satisfied

These are hard times


[Chorus]
  E
I'm breathing in the oxygen
 C#m           A
I'm holding it through hard times
 E
I'm breathing out in the ultrasound
  C#m              A
Things come around in hard times


[Interlude]
A    B    x2


[Bridge]
A
We send our sisters

We send our sisters
B
We send our sisters
C#m         A
A new religion
A                          B
We send our sisters to the sacrifice
B
And then the audience goes wild!

  E
I'm breathing in the oxygen
 C#m               A
I'm holding it through hard times

(These are hard times)
 E
I'm breathing out in the ultrasound
  C#m             A
Things come around in hard times

(These are hard times)
  E
I'm breathing in the oxygen

(Take it all inside, take it all 
inside)
 C#m                        A
Things come around in hard times
