[Intro]
D F#m G x2
[Verse 1]
D F#m G D Life was rough on the lone prairie D A G We didn't have it made D F#m G D The northern winds brought the cold snow flury D A G And brought us close to the grave
[Pre-Chorus]
Bm Bm/A You carried our child through the warm spring haul G E7 A A/G A/F# A/E And if all went well you'd be a mother come to fall
[Chorus]
D F#m Bm Bm/A G D We had hard times comin' with twisters on the ground D F#m Bm Bm/A G A We had tumbleweeds runnin' and they would almost knocked you down Bm Bm/A We would hide beneath the storm cellar's door G E7 And without you there I couldn't take it anymore D F#m Bm Bm/A We had hard times comin' G A D But with your loving we made it alright
[Instrumental]
D F#m G x2
[Verse 2]
D F#m G D The river swelled till the flash blood raged D A G Washing out the plains D F#m G D The cottonwood stood with strength of age D A G And like the trees we remained
[Pre-Chorus]
Bm Bm/A It takes the true woman who believes in her man G E7 A A/G A/F# A/E To stand at his side while he's struggling for his land
[Chorus]
D F#m Bm Bm/A G D We had hard times comin' with sand storms all around D F#m Bm Bm/A G A We had prairie hay burnin' our house burned right to the ground Bm Bm/A Oh the hardships never did seem to in G E7 But when I'd fall down you'd picked me right back up again D F#m Bm Bm/A We had hard times comin' G A D But with your loving we made it alright D F#m Bm Bm/A We had hard times comin' G A D But with your loving we made it alright
[Outro]
D F#m G D
