Capo 3rd fret

Standard (EADGBE)

 It s hard, hard not to sit on your hands

 And bury your head in the sand

Hard not to make other plans

And claim that you ve done all you can all along

 And life must go on

 It s hard, hard to stand up for what s right

 And bring home the bacon each night

Hard not to break down and cry

 When every idea that you ve tried has been wrong

 But you must go on

 It s hard but you know it s worth the fight

 Cause you know you ve got the truth on your side

 When the accusations fly, hold tight

Don t be afraid of what they ll say

Who cares what cowards think, anyway

 They will understand one day, one day

 It s hard, hard when you re here all alone

 And everyone else has gone home

Harder to know right from wrong

 When all objectivities gone, and it s gone

 But you still carry on

 Cause you, you are the only one left

 And you ve got to clean up the mess

 You know you ll end like the rest

Bitter and twisted, unless you stay strong

 and you carry on

 It s hard but you know it s worth the fight

 Cause you know you ve got the truth on your side

 When the accusations fly, hold tight

Don t be afraid of what they ll say

Who cares what cowards think, anyway

 They will understand one day, one day, one day
