[Verse 1]
Gm Eb Gm
It's hard, hard not to sit on your hands
Eb Gm
And bury your head in the sand
Eb Gm
Hard not to make other plans
Eb F Eb
And claim that you've done all you can all along
F Eb
And life must go on
Gm Eb Gm
It's hard, hard to stand up for what's right
Eb Gm
And bring home the bacon each night
Eb Gm
Hard not to break down and cry
Eb F Eb
When every idea you've tried has been wrong
F Eb
But you must carry on
[Chorus]
Bb F Gm
It's hard, but you know it's worth the fight
D Bb
'cause you know you've got the truth on your side
F Gm D
When the accusations fly, hold tight
Bb F Gm
Don't be afraid of what they'll say
D Bb
Who cares what cowards think, anyway?
F Gm D
They will understand one day, one day
[Verse 2]
Gm Eb Gm
It's hard, hard when you're here all alone
Eb Gm
And everyone else has gone home
Eb Gm
Harder to know right from wrong
Eb F Eb
When all objectivities gone, and it's gone
F Eb
But you still carry on
Gm Eb Gm
'cause you, you are the only one left
Eb Gm
And you've got to clean up this mess
Eb Gm
You know you'll end up like the rest
Eb F Eb
Bitter and twisted unless you stay strong
F Eb
And you carry on
[Chorus]
Bb F Gm
It's hard, but you know it's worth the fight
D Bb
'cause you know you've got the truth on your side
F Gm D
When the accusations fly, hold tight
Bb F Gm
Don't be afraid of what they'll say
D Bb
Who cares what cowards think, anyway?
F Gm D Gm
They will understand one day, one day, one day
