And it's a hard life [A] for a man with no wife
Babe, [Bm] it's a hard [G] life, God makes [D] you live
But without it, [A] don't doubt it
You [B] don't even have [G] your [D] tears to give
I wake up and I'm fine
With my [Em] dreaming still on my mind
But it [G] don't take long, you see
For the [D] demons to come and visit me
And I've got my problems
Sometimes [Em] love don't solve them
And I [G] end each day in [D] a song
And it's a hard life for [A] a man with no wife
[Bm] Lord, it's a hard life, [D] God makes you live
But without it, baby, [A] don't doubt it
[Bm] You don't even have [A] your tears to [D] give
I know I'm a hard man [Em] to live with sometimes
[G] Maybe it ain't in me
[E] To make [D] you a happy wife of mine
And maybe you'll kill me
Honey, I [E] don't blame you
[G] If I was in your place
[A] Maybe that's what I would do
[Cm] But I ain't breathing
[Bb] Let me breathe
[Cm] Let me go
[Bb] Let me leave
[Gm] I don't [C] know, but I might lose
[Eb] I might bum, [F] might throw a few [Cm] words
So let me [Eb] go
[Bb] [Cm] [Eb] Lay down
[Bb] [Cm] On [Eb] my own
[Bb] [Cm] Let [Eb] me drown
[Bb] Let [Cm] me go
[Eb] Go where you [F] don't know
[Bb] [Bb] [C] [F] [Gm]
[F] [Gm] [Eb]
