Hush-A-Bye Hard Times Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[D]Many years you have lingered
[A]around my cab[Bm] in d[D]oor
Oh hard [A]times come [D]again [A]no [G]more[Bm][G]
Oh [D]hard [A]times come [D]again [A]no [D]more
Oh hush a bye hard times, go ye away
Cause my hungry baby wants
a Gingerbread Cake
Not a cow in the barn yard
no money to spend
Not an [G]egg in the hayloft,
no little [D]red [G]hen
[D]So,

[Verse 2]
hush a bye baby don't cry no more
Your [G]mama can't give you what
you're [D]crying for
There's a wolf at the door with an angry
Cold hungry stare,
[G]he keeps howling of hard times

[Interlude 1]
And the cupboard is bare
[D]

[Verse 3]
Oh, hush a bye [D]hard times go ye to rest
Cause my ragged baby wants
a new ruffled dress
And she wants some new shoes
with buckles to wear
And [G]she wants some silver
bows for her golden hair
[D]

[Verse 4]
So, hush a bye baby don't cry no more
Your [G]mama can't give you what
you're [D]crying for
There's a wolf at the door with an angry
Cold hungry stare,
he [G]keeps howling of hard times
And the cupboard is [D]bare
So, hush a bye baby don't cry no more
Your [G]mama can't give you what
you're crying for
[D]There's a wolf at the door with an angry
Cold hungry stare, he keeps
howling of hard times
And the cupboard is bare

[Verse 5]
Hush a bye hard times go ye [D]away
[G]I don't intend to be treated this way
[D]

[Verse 6]
So, hush a bye baby
Hush a bye hard times
Hush a bye baby
[G]Don't cry [D]no more
Hush a bye hard times
Hush a bye baby
Hush a bye hard times
[G]Come ye no [D]more

[Verse 7]
Many years you have [D]lingered
around my cabin door
Hush a bye hard times
[G]Come ye no [D]more
Hush a bye baby
Hush a bye hard times
Hush a bye baby
[G]Don't cry [D]no more
Hush a bye hard times
Hush a bye baby
Hush a bye hard times
Come ye no more
