Hard To Be ukulele

Hard To Be

• G

Intro: G, Em, C, D
Well I?ve been drinking
and wasting my time
keep trying to convince
my brain that I?m fine

but the fog
overcomes me
it plays with my mind
and I can?t figure out
if I?m doing it right?

Verse:

(D)                  G                  Em
Well I?ve been slackjawed, awestruck
C           D
carryin? on
                     G                     Em
but I?ve been cornered, and broke down
C        D
plenty before
        C            G
But I just can?t seem
     C       G
To find a dream
               C          G
nice enough to hold up
          D
to that light

                        G             Em
Well I?ve been half-dead, rotten
       C           D
and over my head
               G                    Em
I?ve been sleepwalking, shit-talking
C               D
Forgetting again
            C         G
But it?s hard to be
     C      G
So inbetween
      C             G?D
The truth and alibis


Prechorus:

Em                     C
Why?s it always have to be?
Em                       C
Half mangled and muddy dreams
Em        C                         D
Tryin? to get things off my mind




Chorus:

G          D
Staring at a blank page
C             Em
drowning in the ashtray
Am                         C                         D
Trying to make the words come out right
G        D
And if I can?t make it
C             Em
I?ll do my best to fake it
Am                      C                 D
Trying to make a living out of dyin?
Em                    C
Ooooh, ooh-oh-oooh
Em                   C
Oh, Ooooh-oh-oooh
Em                  C
Oh, Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
D
Oooooooooh
