Hard Times Comin
Tuning:E A D G B E
Key:E
Capo:2nd fret
[Intro]
D F#m G x2
[Verse 1]
D F#m G D
Life was rough on the lone prairie
D A G
We didn't have it made
D F#m G D
The northern winds brought the cold snow flury
D A G
And brought us close to the grave
[Pre-Chorus]
Bm Bm/A
You carried our child through the warm spring haul
G E7 A A/G A/F# A/E
And if all went well you'd be a mother come to fall
[Chorus]
D F#m Bm Bm/A G D
We had hard times comin' with twisters on the ground
D F#m Bm Bm/A G A
We had tumbleweeds runnin' and they would almost knocked you down
Bm Bm/A
We would hide beneath the storm cellar's door
G E7
And without you there I couldn't take it anymore
D F#m Bm Bm/A
We had hard times comin'
G A D
But with your loving we made it alright
[Instrumental]
D F#m G x2
[Verse 2]
D F#m G D
The river swelled till the flash blood raged
D A G
Washing out the plains
D F#m G D
The cottonwood stood with strength of age
D A G
And like the trees we remained
[Pre-Chorus]
Bm Bm/A
It takes the true woman who believes in her man
G E7 A A/G A/F# A/E
To stand at his side while he's struggling for his land
[Chorus]
D F#m Bm Bm/A G D
We had hard times comin' with sand storms all around
D F#m Bm Bm/A G A
We had prairie hay burnin' our house burned right to the ground
Bm Bm/A
Oh the hardships never did seem to in
G E7
But when I'd fall down you'd picked me right back up again
D F#m Bm Bm/A
We had hard times comin'
G A D
But with your loving we made it alright
D F#m Bm Bm/A
We had hard times comin'
G A D
But with your loving we made it alright
[Outro]
D F#m G D
