(intro) GG G G 1. Let us pause in life's pleasures and count its many tears,C G D G while we all sup sorrow with the poor.G C G There's a song that will linger forever in our ears,C G D G oh, hard times come again no more.G C G It's the song, a sigh of the weary,C G Em D hard times, hard times, come again no more.G C G Many days you have lingered around my cabin door,C G D G oh, hard times, come again no more.G C G 2. While we seek mirth and beauty and music light and gay,C G D G there are frail forms fainting at the door.G C G Though their voices now are silent, their pleading looks still say,C G D G oh, hard times come again no more.G C G 3. There's a pale drooping maiden who toils her life away,C G D G with a worn heart whose better days are o'er.G C G Though her voice should be merry, it's singing all the day,C G D G oh, hard times come again no more.G C G 4. It's a sigh that is wafted across the troubled wave,C G D G it's a wail that is heard upon the shore.G C G It's a dirge that is murmured around the lowly grave,C G D G oh, hard times come again no more.G C G It's the song, a sigh of the weary,C G Em D hard times, hard times, come again no more.G C G Many days you have lingered around my cabin door,C G D G oh, hard times, come again no more.C G D G Oh, hard times, come again no more.
