[Verse]
N.C.
Let us pause in life's pleasures and count its many tears
N.C.
For we all sup sorrow with the poor
N.C.
There's a song that will linger forever in our ears
N.C.
Oh, hard times come again no more
[Chorus]
N.C.
Tis the song, the sigh of the weary
N.C.
Hard times, hard times, come again no more
N.C.
Many days you have lingered around my cabin door
N.C.
Oh, hard times come again no more
[Verse]
Tis a Gsigh that is wafted aCcross the troubled Emwave
CTis a Gwail that is Dheard upon the Gshore
CTis a Gdirge that is murmured aCround the lowly Emgrave
COh, Ghard times, Dcome again no Gmore
[Chorus]
Tis the song, the sigh of the CweaGry
CHard Gtimes, Chard Gtimes, come again no Dmore
Many Gdays you have lingered aCround my cabin Emdoor
COh, Ghard times come aDgain no GmoreC  G  
[Verse]
While we seek mirth and beauty, and Cmusic bright and Emgay
CThere are Gfrail forms fainting Dat the GdoorC  G  
CThough their Gvoices are silent, their Cpleading looks will Emsay
"COh, Ghard times come aDgain no Gmore"C  G  
[Chorus]
Tis the song, the sigh of the CweaGry
CHard Gtimes, Chard Gtimes, come again no Dmore
Many Gdays you have lingered aCround my cabin Emdoor
COh, Ghard times come aDgain no Gmore
