The Hard Way

G  Am(4)  F6  G    G  Am(4)  F6  G    C  C  C/E  F    C  C  C/E  F 
{intro: electric guitar(s)}           {whole band} 
 
C  C             C/E   F     C   C             C/E     F 
   Show a little inspiration,    show a little spark 
C      C                     C/E      F          C     C      C/E   F 
   And show that things that drew me to you and stole my heart 
C      C                 C/E       F             C      C      C/E   F 
   And tell me something I don't know instead of everything I do 
C      C             C/E   F    C           C   C/E   F 
   And look at me as if I mean something to you 
 
G                G         G#dim7   G#dim7   Am           Am    D7/F#  D7/F# 
  Our hearts are beating while we sleep, but while we're wide awake 
             F           C5         C5           C5 
You know the world won't stop, and actions speak louder 
F              C5                   C5          C5 
Listen to your heart, and what your heart might say 
G             Am       F       G       C  C  C/E  F 
Everything we got, we got the hard way 
 
Show a little passion, baby, show a little style 
And show the knack for knowing when and the gift for knowing how 
And have a little trust in us when fear obscures the path 
You know we got this far, darling, not by luck, but by never turning back 
 
Some will call on destiny, but I just call on faith 
That the world won't stop, and actions speak louder 
Listen to your heart, to what your heart might say 
G             Am       F       G       C  C  C  C 
Everything we got, we got the hard way 
 
Em7          Em7    F         F    C                C        G    Gsus G 
   Caught up in our little lives,    there's not a lot left over 
Em7             Em7      Am7     Am7        F(9)       F(9)    Gsus      G 
   I see what's missing in your eyes; you're searching for that field of clover 
 
C  C  C/E  F    C  C  C/E  F    C  C  C/E  F    C  C  C/E  F 
{instrumental} 
 
So show a little inspiration, show a little spark 
Show the world a little light when you show it your heart 
 
We've got two lives, one we're given and the other one we make 
And the world won't stop, and actions speak louder 
Listen to your heart, and your heart might say 
G             Am       F       G    G             Am       F       G 
Everything we got, we got the hard (everything we got, we got the hard way) 
G             Am       F       G    C   C   C/E   F 
Everything we got, we got the hard way 
C     C             C/E         F                C     C   C/E   F 
       (because the world won't stop)  hang on, baby... 
C  C  C/E  F
