Verse 1:
C                 Am7
  All that I want
                   Em
Is to wake up fine
                         G
Tell me that I'm alright
                         C
That I ain't gonna die
                 Am7
All that I want
                        Em
Is a hole in the ground
                                   G
You can tell me when it's alright
                    N.C
For me to come out

Chorus:
     C
Hard times
                      Am7
Gonna make you wonder why you even try

Hard times
                        G
Gonna take you down and laugh when you cry
      Am7
These lives
                  Csus2/B  C
And I still don't know how I even survive
     Em
Hard times

And I gotta get to rock bottom
    C     Am7   Em   G
Hmm hm mmm

Verse 2:
C                Am7
  Walking around
                          Em
With my little rain cloud
                   G
Hanging over my head
                         C
And it ain't coming down
               Am7
Where do I go?
                        Em
Gimme some sort of sign
                       Dadd11
You hit me with a lightning
                       N.C
Maybe I'll come alive
