The Hardway
[Intro]
Abm Db
Some people gotta learn the hardway
Abm
I guess I'm the kinda guy
Db
That has to find out for myself
Abm Db
I had to learn the hardway, Father
Abm Db Abm
I'm on my knees and I'm crying for help
Abm Db [8x]
[Verse 1]
Abm Db
Now I've been high and I've been low
Abm Db
I've been some places that you will not go
Abm Db
I never thought there would come the day
Abm Db
When I wished I never would've lived this way
Fm Eb
But I've been searching for a long, long time
Fm Eb
I thought the devil was a friend of mine
Fm Eb
I turned my back on everything that was true
Fm Eb
And wasted years that belong to you
[chorus]
Abm Db

I had to learn the hardway, Father
Abm Db Fm
I'm on my knees and I'm crying for help
[Verse 2]
Abm Db
It took so long for me to see
Abm Db
That I'm a victim of nature and me
Abm Db
Left to myself I realize
Abm Db
I am the maker of my own demise
Fm Eb
But you accept me every time and again
Fm Eb
And never mention just how selfish I've been
Fm Eb
Why must it always take me so long to see
Fm Eb
That I have fallen but you will forgive me?
[chorus]

[Rap]
N.C
The warning signs are like flares in the night
N.C
Still I proceed my greed is in spite of the fire
N.C
I know that's bound to burn
N.C
Why is it that I always gotta learn…
