G           G/F#              Em7          D
They told me that I couldn’t come back here again
Cadd9       Cadd9/B      Asus4   D
Took me for some kind of fool
G           G/F#              Em7          D
Said I was doing things that never should be done
Cadd9       Cadd9/B      Asus4   D
But I don’t care about their rules

Em                      C
As if I cared ‘bout the little minds
G                          G  G/F# Em7
In the little heads of the herd
Em                  C
There’s nothing you could dream
        G
Would be more absurd

G           G/F#              Em7          D
And everybody knows these are rock hard times
Cadd9       Cadd9/B     
I gotta make it through
Asus4      D               G
These are rock hard times

Em                              C
I don’t know what it is they’re trying to do to me
G                      G  G/F#  Em/7
Make me into some sick joke
Em                          C
But no one’s laughing, and least of all not me
C                          G
It’s hard to laugh as you choke

Hollywood lies piled up to the sky
Floating your way soon
Hope you like the rotten stench of doom

And everybody knows these are rock hard times
I gotta make it through
These are rock hard times

I don’t know what it is they think I’m gonna try
They don’t know what they need to fear
The surest sign that the end is coming soon
Is right there in the bathroom mirror

And everybody knows these are rock hard times
I gotta make it through
These are rock hard times
These are rock hard times
