Life Is Hard

D     D C


[Verse 1]
D          D  C
Betty's in a wet T-shirt, feeling 
foolish and vain
D          D  C
Looking like some housecat that got 
caught out in the rain
D         D  C
Staring into the mirror at this 
less-than-pretty picture
D        D  C
Feeling ten years older now, and 
fifty bucks richer


[Chorus]
         G     G7                 
Life Is Hard, can't buy happiness 
    D
no matter what you do
 C                      A         
Can't get to heaven on roller 
      G
skates - can't take a taxicab to 
Timbuktu


[Verse 2]
D            D  C
Paul was a poor little rich boy, he 
never had to cry
D             D  C
Whenever he complained of aches and 
pains the doctors would drop by
D            D  C
Now he goes to parlours where the 
prettiest girls in town
D          D  C
Get paid five hundred dollars just 
to kick him when he's down

[Verse 3]
D            D  C
After he stiffed a waitress, and ran
 out on his tab
  D         D  C
Big Mac had a heart attack in the 
back of a Yellow Cab
D            D  C
By the time the sound of the siren 
said the ambulance was coming
D           D  C
His heart had stopped beating, but 
the meter was still running


[Chorus]
         G     G7                 
Life Is Hard, can't buy happiness 
    D
no matter what you do
 C                      A         
Can't get to heaven on roller

Timbuktu, Life Is Hard,      Life 
 D    D C
Is Hard
         G     G7                 
Life Is Hard, ain’t no escapin’ 
        D
when the rent come due
 C                      A         
Can't get to heaven on roller 
      G
skates - can't take a taxicab to 
Timbuktu
