 Bb   Dm   Gm   F(2x)
As they
BbDig your ditches
DmCount my stitches 
GmGeneration Fjustice wishes for
BbWorld at war
DmFinal score
GmMedia come Fand abhor us
These are Bbhard timesDm  
But we’ll work Gmharder, hardFer
Give me Bbhard timesDm  
And I’ll work Gmharder, hardFer
(Same as first verse)
Divided nation
In sedation
Overload of information
That we have grown
To ignore…
Mediocrity applauded
Through these hard times
We’ll work harder
Give me hard times
And I’ll work harder, harder
(Chorus)
For Bbrevo     Gm  Flu    BbtionGm  F  
Show me some
BbReso      Gm  Flu    Bbtion
And this
GmBattle will be Fwon 
(Same as other verses)
Forced to count the hours
Since two towers
Fell to fiction those higher powers
Putting gods to war
Who keeps score?
Ignorance is still adored
All through these hard times
We’ll work harder, harder
Give me hard times
And I’ll work harder harder
(Same as chorus, but quieter and more dramatic)
For revolution
Show me some revolution
(Then back to the normal progression)
This battle will be won
If they only see you with their fear
And they only hear you with their pride
Then work harder
Harder harder harder...harder
Hard Times
(End how you feel is the best way..but the last chord is Bb)
