A                        
You call a truce and then you start a fight,
  A
you change your signals like a traffic light
                Bm                  A
cause you're a hard, a hard one to know.

  A
Around your heart you've tied a fishing line,
  A
You cast it out there just to see who'll bite
                Bm                   A
cause you're a hard, a hard one to know.


  E                          Bm
I toss and turn but I just can't get to sleep
  D                               A
when I start thinkin' 'bout what you do to me.
  E                          Bm
You're like a flower garden buried in snow,
          E           A
you're a hard one to know.


  A
You give your love out like an auctioneer.
  A
Your moves are jumpy and your words aren't clear
                Bm                  A
cause you're a hard, a hard one to know.

  A
First you smother then you disengage 
  A
Your tears of joy dissolve to tears of rage
                Bm                  A
cause you're a hard, a hard one to know.


  E                          Bm
I toss and turn but I just can't get to sleep
  D                               A 
when I start thinkin' 'bout what you do to me.
  E                          Bm
You drag your feet as you swing to and fro,
          E           A
you're a hard one to know.

  E                           Bm
I toss and turn but I just can't get to sleep
  D                               A
when I start thinking 'bout what you do to me.
  E                           Bm
You're like a flower garden buried in snow,
          E           A
you're a hard one to know.

 
 E                            Bm
And I try to love ya but you won't let me in.
 D                         A
You say it's ending before it can begin.
 E                             Bm
You tell to stay and then you tell me to go,
 E
you're a hard one to know.
