[Intro] G  Am  D  G
        G  Am  D  G

[Chorus]

G         Am        D        G
All of my hard times soon be over
G         Am        D        G
All of my hard times soon be over

[First Part]

G
I've been pushed and I've been shoved
C                    Cm
Been put down by the people I love
G
I've been hurt and I've been scorned
   C                  Cm
At times I wished I'd never been born, but

[Chorus]

G         Am        D        G
All of my hard times soon be over
G         Am        D        G
All of my hard times soon be over

[Segunda Parte]

G
I was raised in a two-room shack
    C                      Cm
The only thing I owned was hangin' on my back
G
Been in trouble, thrown in jail
  C             Cm
I had nobody to draw my bail, but

[Chorus]

G         Am        D        G
All of my hard times soon be over
G         Am        D        G
All of my hard times soon be over

[Bridge]

F C  G
Hard times (Lord, have mercy on me)
F C  G
Hard times (Help, help, help me somebody)
F                C             G
Blamed the whole world for the shape I was in
    F         C        G
But I was too blind to see
     F        C         G
That my worst enemy was under my skin
       F  C  G
It was me

[Terceira Parte]

G
I've been lost but now I'm found
      C                      Cm
There ain't no way to keep a good man down
G
You came along and took my hand
C                   Cm
And now I feel like born natural man, but

[Final Chorous]

G         Am        D        G
All of my hard times soon be over
G         Am        D        G
All of my hard times soon be over
G         Am        D        G
All of my hard times soon be over
G         Am        D        G
All of my hard times soon be over
