[Intro]
Bm D Em Bm D Em Bm
[Verse 1]
Bm D Times are tough and getting tougher Em Bm The water's high and getting rougher D A lot of talk of going under Em Bm That's one thought, but I got another
[Chorus]
D I come from the school of hard knocks Em G A The one my dad, and his dad, and his daddy taught Bm D I learned early that you better learn fast Em G A Bm How to get back up when life knocks you flat on your back D And you don't back down Em When the going gets tough G A Bm You ask for some more when ya had enough D Em When fear is a cold steel hammer that drops G A Bm D Em Bm You answer the door any time hard knocks
[Verse 2]
D All the hate is getting bolder Em Bm All the words are getting colder D The latest news is getting older Em They all wanna cry Bm Well, mine ain't the shoulder
[Chorus]
D I come from the school of hard knocks Em G A The one my dad, and his dad, and his daddy taught Bm D I learned early that you better learn fast Em G A Bm How to get back up when life knocks you flat on your back D And you don't back down Em When the going gets tough G A Bm You ask for some more when ya had enough D Em When fear is a cold steel hammer that drops G A Bm You answer the door any time hard knocks
