                    G    Em    C 
Since I fell on hard times 
                    G    Em    C 
I haven't known what to do 
                        G    Em    C 
I spend my days here in line 
                        G    Em    C 
Just waiting for something new 

D                     C 
 From fireworks and peaches 
D                     C 
 To weed, speed and bluegrass 
D 
 From buses that burn 
     C 
And barns that lean down 
   Am               C 
As far as my memory reaches 

                      G    Em   C 
Since I fell on hard times 
                    G    Em    C 
I haven't known where to go 
                           G    Em    C 
I thought I might have seen a sign 
                    G    Em    C 
With the first dust of snow 

D                    C 
 But it added up to nothing 
D                     C 
 And now I'm no longer sure 
      D           
If my prayers are just a habit 
       C 
Or if I'm just a fool 
    Am                        C 
For thinking life ain't worth living 
                   G    Em    C 
Since I fell on hard times 

| G Em | C C | 

Am 
And no one knows 
     Em 
Just what lay in store 
Am 
No one knows 
     Em 
Just what we're in for 
         D 
No one knows 
         Am    C 
Nobody knows... 

                      G    Em    C 
Since I fell on hard times 
                     G    Em    C 
I haven't known right from wrong 
                        G    Em    C 
But lord knows I've been trying 
               G    Em    C 
To find where I belong 

D                     C 
 I keep dreaming bare branches 
D                       C 
 On these air patrolled highways 
   D                          C 
I guess it just comes from living life alone 
  Am                         C 
In these hotels shaped like ashes 

                     G    Em    C 
Since I fell on hard times 
                          G    Em    C 
I ain't been feeling that good 
                          G    Em    C 
I tell the world that I'm fine 
                       G    Em    C 
I'd change it all if I could     (Yeah, I would) 

D                         C 
 I sold my green leather jacket 
D                         C 
 In front of the Piedmont cafe 
     D                         C 
And ever since then I've been looking for someone 
   Am                      C 
To help while these days away 
                            G    Em    C 
Yeah, since I fell on hard times 

| G Em | C C | 

Am 
And no one knows 
     Em 
Just what lay in store 
Am 
No one knows 
     Em 
Just what we're in for 
         D 
No one knows 
         Am 
Nobody knows 
      Bm 
Nobody knows 
           Am         C 
Who'll be the next to go 

                     G    Em    C 
Since I fell on hard times 
                    G    Em    C 
I can't believe what I've seen 
                       G    Em    C 
To live such a different life 
                       G    Em    C 
Than the one that you dreamed 

D                   C 
 It's all part of a story 
D              C 
 But it has no end 
     D                     C 
From fortunes that turn to reasons we find 
   Am                C 
To live it all over again 
                     G    Em    C 
Since I fell on hard times - repeat
