Alright, we're switching over to some other instruments here.
I'm going to play a song called Harder Before It Gets Easier.
[C] [D]
[G]
[D]
[G]
You've been striving so [D] hard you can [G] barely breathe
You've been striving so [D] hard you [G] can barely breathe
You've been stitching your heart [D] on the outside [G] of your sleeve
You've been stitching your [D] heart on the outside [G] of your sleeve
[Em] You've [E] been [B] rung out [C] in the doubt [E] and [G] with the grief
In [Em] the
[B] ocean's depth, [C] this moment [G] will be brief, will be [D] brief
Oh, I know it's gonna [G] get harder [D]
before [G] it gets easier
[D]
Oh, I know it's gonna [G] get harder [D]
before it [G] gets
[D]
[G] easier
[D] Knock, knock, baby does [G] not care
[D] Knock, knock, too loud [G] to hear
Knock, [D] knock, we [G] were out of breath
Knock, knock, baby does not
[D]
care
[G]
[D]
[G] [C]
[G] Mother, the position of [D] our hearts [G] was shaped
The position of our [D]
hearts [G] was shaped
Someday this burden of loving will lift
Burden of [D]
loving [G] will lift
[E] And [Em] the difference between [Bm] wrong and right
[B] [C] Will close [G] like a fist
[Em] Now,
[B] judgement's passed
[C] Harder [G] will be swift
Just [D] like this
[G] [D] Oh, I know it's gonna get harder before it gets easier
Oh, I know it's [G] gonna get harder before it gets
[D]
[G] easier
Knock, knock, baby does not care
[D] Knock, knock, too [G] loud to hear
[E] Knock, knock, we were [G] out of breath
Knock, knock, baby does not
[D] care
[G]
[C] [G]
[D] [G]

[D] [G]
[D] [G]
Baby's born in the mud hut
Baby's born in the mud hut
With a worm [A]
fastened to his gut
With a worm fastened to [G] his gut
[Em] Most doors [B] open briefly
[C] [G] Then they are shut
[Em] So, for [B] the best, [C] he's only old
[G] That gets stuck in [D] a rut
[G] Oh, I know it's gonna get harder before it [D] gets easier
Oh, I know it's gonna [G] get harder [D]
before [G] it gets
[D]
[G] easier
[D] Knock, knock, [G] [D]
too [G] loud to hear
Knock, [D] knock, we were [G] out of breath
Knock, knock, baby does not care
[D] Knock, knock, [G] [D]
too [G] loud to hear
Knock, [D] knock, too loud to hear
Knock, knock, we were [G] out of breath
Knock, knock, baby does not care
