F#5        B5
Bad times, something's wrong
F#5           B5
Money's gone, on my own
F#5                 B5
Can't stay, there's nothing here
F#5    B5          C#5
Been a hard, hard year

F#5          B5
First month, snows came
F#5            B5
Put me in bed, couldn't work the same
F#5         B5
Job's gone, bills are here
F#5    B5          C#5
Been a hard, hard year

     Eb5         Ab5         Eb5
If I look on the bad side of life
                         Ab5         Eb5     
I?ll lose heart and then I?ll want to die
        B5                     Eb5
So I've got to get back on my feet
    B5                     Eb5   
And prove to myself I'm a man

Instrumental verse

I hope that the bad times have gone
It's been rough but I think that I've won
Now I'm happy and I'll never be that way again
No, I'll never be that way again

Snow's gone, spring's here
Won't happen twice, I've seen my way clear
Everyone's paid, got no one to fear
Been a hard, hard year
Been a hard, hard year
