Chords with lyrics
Baby Huey & The Babysitters
Hard Times
A minorAm
Cold, cold eyes upon me they stare
C majorC
People all around me and they're all in fear
DmDm
They don't seem to want me but they won't admit
A minorAm C-Dm A minorAm [Listen to Recording for Timing]
I must be some kind of creature up here having fits
A minorAm
From my party house, I'm afraid to come outside
C majorC
Although I'm filled with love I'm afraid they'll hurt my pride
DmDm
So I play the part I feel they want of me
A minorAm
And I pull the shades so I won't see them seein' me
C majorC DmDm A minorAm C majorC
Havin' hard times in this crazy town
C majorC DmDm A minorAm DmDm C majorC
Havin' hard times, there's no love to be found
C majorC DmDm A minorAm C majorC
Havin' hard times, in this crazy town
C majorC DmDm A minorAm
Havin' hard times, there's no love to be found
A minorAm
From my party house I feel like meetin' others
C majorC
Familiar faces, creed and race, a brother
DmDm
But to my surprise I find a man corrupt
A minorAm
Although he be my brother, he wants to hold me up
C majorC DmDm A minorAm C majorC
Havin' hard times in this crazy town
C majorC DmDm A minorAm DmDm C majorC
Havin' hard times, there's no love to be found
C majorC DmDm A minorAm C majorC
Havin' hard times, in this crazy town
C majorC DmDm A minorAm
Havin' hard times, there's no love to be found
A minorAm [for the entire talking part]
So many hard times...
Sleepin' on motel floors
Knockin' on my brother's door
Eatin' Spam and Oreos and drinkin' Thunderbird baby
C majorC
in this crazy town
C majorC DmDm A minorAm DmDm C majorC
Havin' hard times, there's no love to be found
C majorC DmDm A minorAm C majorC
Havin' hard times, in this crazy town
C majorC DmDm A minorAm
Havin' hard times, there's no love to be found
[A minorAm for the outro]
I'm sick and tired
I'm sick and tired of payin' dues baby
And I'm sick and tired of havin' so many hard, hard times baby
And from my party house, from my party house
