D# Fm All that I want G# Cm Is to wake up fine D# Fm Tell me that I’m alright Cm G# That I ain’t gonna die All that I want Is a hole in the ground You can tell me when it's alright For me to come out Chorus: Fm Hard times Cm Gonna make you wonder why you even try D# Hard times G# Gonna take you down and laugh when you cry Fm These lives Cm And I still don't know how I even survive D# G# Hard times, Hard times Cm And I gotta get to rock bottom Walking around With my little rain cloud Hanging over my head And it ain't coming down Where do I go? Gimme some sort of sign You hit me with lightning! Maybe I'll come alive Chorus Tell my friends I'm coming down We'll kick it when I hit the ground Tell my friends I'm coming down We'll kick it when I hit the ground When I hit the ground When I hit the ground When I hit the ground When I hit the ground Chorus - x2 Hard times Makes you wonder why you even try Makes you wonder why you even try Makes you wonder why you even try Makes you wonder Hard times Still don't know how I even survive Still don't know how I even survive Still don't know how I even survive Still don't know how I survive And I gotta get to rock bottom (Oof) You can simplify chords by removing barre | TransposeReset Font SizeReset Guitar Chord DiagramsCm  D#  Fm  G#  Here you can see detailed diagrams for each guitar chord used in the song.
