Intro B E F# B (Repeat 2x) First Verse B E F# B Well here I am in the wind again, floating where it takes me B E F# B Laughin' and a splashin' in the summer sun, until the alarm clock awakes me B E F# Then it's coffee and a wish and two cigarettes, and I'm back out in the F# B cold, cold weather B E F# B Chasin' my dream but I just can't seem to rub two coins together B (Sing it) Chorus B E B Life ain't easy, they never said it would be B E B Life ain't easy, whoever said it should be B F# Life ain't easy, and nothing comes free, free, free, free B E B Life ain't easy, tell me all about it B E Life ain't easy, no, no, no, no B E F# Life ain't easy, and nothing comes free, for you or me Second Verse Repeat Intro 2x B E F# B That woman she don't understand, the way my mind keeps driftin' B E F# B And the Lord don't always lend a hand, when my poor heart needs liftin' B E F# B Is home and kids really all there is, or is there something better?
