If [F] there's one thing that [C] I know, it is [F] that two [A]
shades of [Bb] hope
[G] [F] One the enlightened [C] soul,
[G] and the other [F] is more like a hangman's rope
Well [Bb] it's true, you may reap what [G] you sow, but [Bb] not that despair is the all time low
[C] Baby, [F] hope deals [C] the hardest [F] blows
[Gm]
[C]
[F] There's one [C] someone I loved, [F] whose heart overflowed his [Bb] cup
[F] And his shoes got covered in [C] blood
[D] Oh but he never knew, cause [C] he [F] only looked up
Well [Bb] he was a troubled [C] soul, [Bb] who'd known pain more than most I know
And yet it [F] was hope that did [C] the hardest [F] blows
[D]
[F]
And the girl that holds the [C] hand of [F] a somewhat distant [Bb] eye
[F] Though she'd do everything she [C] can, still [D] his heart sets [Dm]
sail [F] for distant lands
And [Bb] she wonders sometimes if he [C] knows, how [Bb] she feels like a [D] [C] trampled [E] rose
[D] Baby, [F] hope deals [C] the hardest [F] blows

[F] [C]
[F]
[D] [F] some people think [C] their sin [F] caused the cancer that's eating [Bb] in to [C] them
And the [F] only way that they [C] can win, is [D] by the heathen of [Dm] [C] somebody's hands on their [F] skin
[Bb]
[C] But [Bb] when the cancer does [D] not go, [C]
baby [F] hope deals [C] the hardest [F] blows
[F]
And now all these truths are [C] soaked, with [F] foundations [Bb] below them
[F] That were dug out in a [C] winter's cold
[D] When the world stole our young, [C] and preyed on the [D] old
Well [Bb] hope
[C] deals the [Bb] hardest [D] blows
And yet I [F] cannot help [C] myself but [F] hope
I [C]
[F]
guess that's why [C] love [Bb] hurts, [C] and heartaches stain
[Dm] And despair is never worse, than [C] despair that turns [F] brains red
Hope deals [C] the [Dm] hardest blows
Dear, [C] the hardest
[Bb] Hope deals [C] the hardest [F] blows
