Les Jours Tristes Tabulatur von Yann Tiersen

Am    F                      Am
It's hard, hard not to sit on your hands
    F                    Am
And bury your head in the sand
F                     Am
Hard not to make other plans
    F                             G        F
And claim that you've done all you can all along
    G            F
And life must go on
     Am    F                          Am
It's hard, hard to stand up for what's right
    F                        Am
And bring home the bacon each night
F                         Am
Hard not to break down and cry
     F                G              F
When every idea you've tried has been wrong
        G          F
But you must carry on
 
 
     C            G                   Am
It's hard, but you know it's worth the fight
       E                             C
'cause you know you've got the truth on your side
         G           Am        E
When the accusations fly, hold tight
C        G                     Am
Don't be afraid of what they'll say
E                             C
Who cares what cowards think, anyway?
          G              Am       E
They will understand one day, one day
 
 
[Verse 2]
     Am    F                         Am
It's hard, hard when you're here all alone
    F                     Am
And everyone else has gone home
F                        Am
Harder to know right from wrong
     F                G              F
When all objectivities gone, and it's gone
        G           F
But you still carry on
       Am   F                   Am
'cause you, you are the only one left
    F                          Am
And you've got to clean up this mess
    F                          Am
You know you'll end up like the rest
F                   G             F
Bitter and twisted unless you stay strong 
        G     F
And you carry on
 
 
[Chorus]
     C            G                   Am
It's hard, but you know it's worth the fight
       E                             C
'cause you know you've got the truth on your side
         G           Am        E
When the accusations fly, hold tight
C        G                     Am
Don't be afraid of what they'll say
E                             C
Who cares what cowards think, anyway?
          G              Am       E        Am
They will understand one day, one day, one day
