The Hard Way   

Music and Lyrics by Rob Oswin

 

                 E                           A     E   A                  E                           A     E   A

Well she's thirty-seven years today.              And all she ever seemed to say...

              C#m   A                 E                                          C#m A             E  B

She said "I... I could have been someone," "You know but I... was staring into the sun."

 

Chorus:

                             C#m                                      A                                E

AND SHE SAID, "YOU COULD FIND THE HARD WAY OF DOING ANYTHING"

C#m                               A                                E    B

"YOU COULD TRY TO MAKE IT ON YOUR OWN"

C#m                                     A                                   E

"YOU COULD FIND THE HARD WAY OF DOING ANYTHING"

  A                                        E                B               

"BUT YOU MAY NEVER MAKE IT ALL ALONE."

 

2nd time : add 1 bar B

 

3rd time: add   A   B   |  C#m      A  B X 100   last time C#m   A   E

 

Verse2

So she ordered up another round, And she said, "I don't mean to bring you down."

"But on the road that we must travel.., take care." "Before the yellow brick turns to gravel, You've gotta hurry up and take your share!"

 

Chorus 2

 

Bridge

A                                                                                   E

"WHATEVER YOU DO WITH YOUR LIFE, LEAVE A TRAIL!"

G#7                                                                                A

"SOMETIMES SOME THINGS IN LIFE WELL YOU JUST CAN'T HELP!"

F#m7                                                   B

"BUT I SEE BIG THINGS IN YOUR FUTURE,"

F#m7                                                                                              B

"ONCE YOU SHINE YOUR LIGHT DOWN A LINE TO SUIT YA'...' "OR YOU CAN FIND THE HARD WAY!"

 

Lead:    A   G#7    C#m    A    F#m   B

 

Verse 3

           E                   A     E   A                             E                                      A                 E   A

So she lit another cigarette,            And through the smoke came a passion I'll never forget.

                C#m       A      E                     C#m   A                          E           

She said, "Desire... is an Angel,." "And Pride is such a lonely mistake."

        C#m   B          A                 F#m     B                               E

"In Ambition... there's a danger," "If loneliness is the price you'll pay!"
