F                                                         Bb
I was raised out of steel here in the swamps of Jersey, some misty years ago

Dm                                                          Bb
Through the mud and the beer, and the blood and the cheers, I've seen champions come and go

F                              Bb
So if you got the guts mister, yeah, if you got the balls

Dm                                                   Bb
If you think it's your time, then step to the line, and bring on your wrecking ball

F                                                              Bb
Now my home's here in these meadowlands, where mosquitoes grow big as airplanes

              Dm                                          Bb
Here where the blood is spilled, the arena's filled, and giants played their games

    F                                Bb
So raise up your glasses and let me hear your voices call

   Gm                            Bb

F                                              Bb
Now when all this steel and these stories, they drift away to rust

    Dm                                 Bb
And all our youth and beauty, it's been given to the dust

        F                                 Bb
When the game has been decided and we're burning down the clock

    Dm                                          Bb
And all our little victories and glories have turned into parking lots

When your best hopes and desires are scattered to the wind

Dm                    
And hard times come, and hard times go

C
And hard times come, and hard times go

And hard times come, and hard times go

And hard times come, and hard times go

                     C
Yeah just to come again
