Hard Out Here Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[C]

[Verse 1]
Well, after [C]all these years
of running 'round
[Am]Always [F]flying high and fallin' down
I [G]gotta get back to the way I was
[F]Gonna turn it all [Dm]'round [G]just because
And [C]everybody's talkin'
about the shape I'm in
They say [F]"boy, you ain't a poet,
just a drunk with a band."
[Dm]All over[G] and over, again and again,
[Em]Lord[F], they don't know
about the [G]places I've been

[Verse 2]
It gets [C]hard out here
[Am]I know[C] it don't look[Am] it
I [F]used to have heart,
but the highway took it
The [G]game was right,
but the deal [Em]was c[G]rooked
[Em]Lord[F], I'll make it perfectly clear[G],
it gets hard [C]out [Am]here

[Interlude 1]
[C][F][Dm][F][G][Em]
[G][F][G]

[Verse 3]
[C]I guess there must be
something I'm miss[G]ing
My [F]momma told me I should've
gone into easy listenin'
[G]Going with the band 'cause
I thought it was cool
[Em]Oh, [F]good Lord,
[Dm]I should've [G]gone back to school

[Verse 4]
[C]Oh, pretty darlin', [Am]it'll [C]be okay
You [F]know

[Verse 5]
one of these days
I'm gonna take you away
She said, "o[G]h, sweet daddy,
you're probably right,
You [Em]know we [F]might get lucky,
but it [G]won't be tonight"
It [Am]gets hard

[Verse 6]
[C]out[Am] here[C]
[Am]I know[C] it don'[Am]t look[C] it
I [F]used to have heart,
[Dm]but the [F]highway took it
The [G]game was right,
but the deal [Em]was c[G]rooked
[Em]Lord[F], I'll make it perfectly clear[G],
it gets [C]hard [Am]out h[C]ere
[Am]I

[Verse 7]
know it don't [C]seem it
I [F]said I tried, but I never did mean it
[G]Nobody's listening so we
mine as well scream it
[F]Oh, God, we're all outta [G]beer
It gets hard [C]out [Am]here

[Outro 1]
