The Four Horsemen – Nobody Said It Was Easy
I transcribed this as a reference for playing bass. It's played with a blues-type riff, so use
the chords for reference for the riff positions. As always, listen to the song for feel.
Enjoy!
Intro is 'D' riff.
D G
Hey baby, it's getting late now, and the years are rollin' on
C D
Ain't no time to take it easy now, we been goin' too long
G
It's dirty, it's a pity, and time ain't exactly on our side
C D F F G G
That ain't no reason now, not to give it a try
C
Don't look inside the mirror, your time is drawing nearer
F D F F
How many dues do I have to pay, before they, take my soul away?
D G
Sick of being unforgiven, but there's blue skies overhead
C D F F
A dirty way to make a livin', yeah, but somebody's got to do it
D G
I'm a lover, not a loser, I'm a lonely heart's one night stand
C D F F G G
Not a penny in my pocket, nor a dime in my hand
C
Don't look inside the mirror, your time is drawing nearer
F D E
How many dues do I have to pay, before they, take my soul away?
D G G E E
If you've been hurt by love before
D G G E E
You don't think you can take anymore
D C
I think it's about time you evened the score, let's hit the door!
