    Hard Case

    Great Big Sea

From GBS's 2008 album, "Fortune's Favour". This overall sounds good to me, though the 
chorus is a tad iffy. Feel free to send in corrections. Enjoy!

[Verse 1]
    G                  C       G
She goes down fast and comes up slow,
(G)              C       D
Gets in high and goes out low,
C                D       Em
Turns up late or doesn't show,
G                  C    D          G
She spends all her cash on letting go.

[Verse 2]
I'm never early, I'm never late,
I'm in at 5 and out at 8,
Running just to keep the pace,
When I'm tired I put on my bravest face.

    G    C     Em  C
The sign said "Go Slow",
    G    C     Em    C        D
And lord knows how I tried to follow,
C      G    C           Em    C
Such a hard case with a soft face,
            G   C
You gave me one taste,
Em       C      D         C
Now look at the shape I'm in.

[Verse 3]
I love her but i like you too,
My worst nightmare just came true,
We might be done but we're not through,
So drag me down just like you used to do.

[Chorus]

[Verse 4]
With the morning comes the the sun,
The light of day just had to come,
Now I know you're not the one,
Should feel bad but baby we had fun.

[Chorus]

[Bridge]
Dm             Am
Hold me down under the sea,
Dm                       Am   G  C
Drag me back to where we used to be.

[Chorus] (x2)
