_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
[C] _ _ _ _ _ _ When you're [Gm] so long gone, _ [F] you can't help [C] yourself
_ _ _ _ When you're [Gm] so dead wrong, _ [F] _ let alone [C] no one else _ _ _ _
[Gm] Well, the children still dying [F] in the street _
[C] And babies still living with the seed _
[Gm] And the cops got guns [F] and the poor folk got [C] sons
We work for Mr.
Franklin every week
And [Gm] if you come looking [F] for a hard time _
[C] _ Hard times ain't hard to find
[Gm] Because we're giving [F] our lifeline _
[C] _ Only once in a lifetime
Baby, [Gm] we was born
_ [F] Baby, we were [C] born
_ _ _ _ _ To [Gm] be sure
_ [F] To endure when the storm [C] comes _ _ _ _ _
[Gm] Got them sad [F] eyes, got them cat eyes
[C] Got them angels tied for saving his life
[Gm] And you bet to contain [F] yourself _ _
[C] _ Before you end up killed _
[Gm] Yeah, his bare feet [F] touching her bare feet
[C] The air breeze sweet near mountains peak
[Gm] And I forgot what the [F] wise man said _
[C] _ About that ancient prayer _
[Gm] And if you come looking [F] for a hard time
[C] _ Hard times ain't hard to find
[Gm] Because we're giving [F] our lifeline _
[C] _ Only once in a lifetime
Baby, we was born
_ [F] Baby, we were [C] born
_ To _ _ _
[Gm] be sure
[F] To endure when the [C] storm comes _ _ _ _ _
Baby, we was born
_ [F] Baby, we were [C] born
_ To _ _ _ [Gm] _ _ rejoice
_ [F] _ Rejoice when the [C] storm comes _ _ _ _ _
