Song: | Here is a janky beginner version that leaves room for a lot of flex. I determined these tabs with a singer/sing-a-long in mind -- let the voice hit all the right notes, your harp can be the rough harmony in the background. I think if you play this tab with style and heart, it can become really beautiful. 4 -4 5 5 5 5 6 5 -4 4 4 -4 5 Let us pause in life's plea-sures and count its ma-ny tears, -6 -6 6 5 5 (45) (-4-5) 5 While we all sup sor-row with the poor; 4 -4 5 5 5 5 6 5 -4 4 4 -4 5 There's a song that will lin-ger for-ev-er in our ears; -6 6 5 5 4 -4 -4 4 Oh Hard times come a-gain no more. Chorus: (45)(-4-5) (56) (56) (56) (-4-5) (56) (-5-6) (56) Tis the song, the sigh of the wea- ry, (-5-6) (56) (-5-6) (56) (45) (45) (34) (-3-4) (34) Hard Times, hard ti- imes, come a- gain no more 4 -4 5 5 5 5 6 5 -4 4 4 -4 5 Ma-ny days you have ling-ered a-round my cab-in door; -6 6 5 5 4 -4 -4 4 Oh hard times come a-gain no more. While we seek mirth and beauty and music to light the way, There are frail forms fainting at the door; Though their voices are silent, their pleading looks will say Oh hard times come again no more. (Chorus) There's a pale drooping maiden who toils her life away, With a worn heart whose better days are o'er: Though her voice would be merry, 'tis sighing all the day, Oh hard times come again no more. (Chorus) Tis a sigh that is wafted across the troubled wave, Tis a wail that is heard upon the shore Tis a dirge that is murmured around the lowly grave Oh hard times come again no more. (Chorus) |
