A         G
Well times are bad
    C                           A
And all the time you're feeling sad
               G
And people are laughing
C                  A
Telling you to go away
                  G
And your feet are trudging
       C                    A
You're always acting like a curmudgeon
              G
And I know, I know
          C    A#   A
That it's hard hard hard




[Verse 2/Chorus] 
          A             G
Well it's hard to walk around
    C                     A
And feeling like a circus clown
           G
Grab a big baton
    C                     A
And twirl it like a magic wand
               G
Your cards are dealt
    C                    A
And everything is deeply felt
               G
Well I know, I know
          C    A#   A
That it's hard hard hard




[Verse 3/Chorus]
         A          G
And when people you love
     C                  A
Are attacking you from above
                 G
And everyone you trust
        C                       A
Is just tellin' you a bucket of lies
            G
Well just believe
          C             A
That it's all gonna be okay
              G
And I know, I know
          C    A#   A
That it's hard hard hard
