Peggy Seeger - Sing About These Hard Times NB Very similar chords and tune to "Down In The River" ...but NOT identical. No idea if this is the exact key Peggy uses, as I don't have a recording to work from; I worked it out from memory soon after hearing her play it at a gig. But it happens to be an easy key both for playing on ukulele and also for singing. Chorus: F Sing about these hard times, C7 F Sing all about these hard old times, F Sing about these hard times C7 C When will the good times roll? [ Tab from: http://www.guitaretab.com/p/peggy-seeger/354300.html ] C7 F I worked hard, I played my part Bb F That's what I did right from the start C7 F But these hard times are gonna break my heart C7 C When will the good times roll? Chorus Life gets harder every year Those with the least have the most to fear Those with the most just don't care When will the good times roll? Chorus The big corporations got no home And the men on the Hill got hearts of stone They worry my life like a dog with a bone When will the good times roll? Chorus They moved my job to Mexico Where the children slave and the pay is low How I'm gonna live I just don't know When will the good times roll? Chorus O, the world is ill divided Those who work most are the least provided And when they got a war they want US to fight it When will the good times roll? Chorus |
