Hard Times

       Em                     D
To the pavement, to the solid ground
                  C
It's gonna be the hard times
                  B                 
      Em     D   N.C.
That'll leave you when things are 
cheap again

  D
Baby, it's the hard times, don't you
 know
         Em                       
That has taken the shine off your 
D
golden look
                  C                
It's gonna be the hard times 
            B
that'll leave you when
              Em          D   N.C.
You come back to me again

[Chorus]
N.C. Em                    C        
     B
Hard times, you're running scared on
 the streets
     Em              C            
Hard times, with all beggars and 
   B
the priests
     Em                     
Hard times, with the welfare 
 C                B

N.C.           Em                   
        D
Baby, it's the hard times, and the 
taste is here
     Em                            
From champagne, going to sipping on
 D
 beer
               C                
Baby, it's the hard times that's 
                B

It's about time you know

[Chorus]
N.C. Em                        C    
              B
Hard times, they've raised the price
 of smoke and drink
     Em     C                     
Hard times, gonna make make me 
      B
stop and think
     Em             C           B
Hard times, will it ever be the same
Am                                
All this talk of a chance of work 
   B            C
is just a crazy game

      Em                  C       
Hard times, they're gonna force 
         B
you to the wall
     Em                  C     
Hard times, 'til there's nothing 
          B
left at all
     Em                  C        
Hard times, this walking wreck 
           B
ain't worth a dime
    A                         B     
              N.C.
Got your head hanging down in there 
with the line

N.C. Em                       C     
     B
Hard times, it seems the whole world
 has quit
     Em                   C       
Hard times, you've got no future, 
       B
got no past
     Em              C           
Hard times, just how long can it 
B
last
    A                               
  B     N.C.
You wake up one day and find out 
it's gone in a flash
