Verse 1

                Am                    F
Well, Harry Rivers is a friend of mine,
             C                         G
moved out of the city to the countryside.
              Am                        F
Tell me doctor, how much time I have got?
               C               G
Don't worry man, more than a lot.
                Am                             F
So run hug your brother, get along with your father,
                   Am                      F
I'll hide all the pills, rifles and daggers.


Chorus

              F                       Am
Harry loves drinkin', Harry loves fishin'
                    C             G
But he spends his days mostly wishin'
     F                      Am            G
How life could be a little less harsh on him
         F                      Am              G
If only life could be a little less harsh on Harry


Verse 2


                   Am              F
Well, I remember Harry ten years ago,
                 C                G
Ringing my door bell, not doing well.
                       Am                     F
He couldn't sleep for days,wearing the same shirt,
               C                 G
Blood on his hands, someone got hurt.
            Am                   F
I took him home and got him in bed,
             C                  G
Sat by his side, Louise looked sad.


Chorus

              F                       Am
Harry loves drinkin', Harry loves fishin'
                    C             G
But he spends his days mostly wishin'
     F                      Am            G
How life could be a little less harsh on him
         F                      Am              G
If only life could be a little less harsh on Harry
