             D                             A               D
Let us pause in life's pleasures and count it s many tears,

G        D              A        D
while we all sup sorrow with the poor

                                   A           D
There's a song that will linger forever in our ears;

G   D                A       D
Oh, hard times come again no more.

D                             G   D
Tis the song, the sigh of the weary,

                              E       A
hard times, hard times, come again no more

     D                       A              D
Many days you have lingered around my cabin door;

G   D                A       D
Oh, hard times come again no more.

         D                         A               D
While we seek mirth and beauty and music light and gay,

G         D           A               D
there are frail forms fainting at the door

                                      A                   D
Though their voices are silent, their pleading looks will say;

G   D                A       D
Oh, hard times come again no more.

D                             G   D
Tis the song, the sigh of the weary,

                              E       A
hard times, hard times, come again no more

     D                       A              D
Many days you have lingered around my cabin door;

G   D                A       D
Oh, hard times come again no more.
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.
D                             G   D
Tis the song, the sigh of the weary,

                              E       A
hard times, hard times, come again no more

     D                       A              D
Many days you have lingered around my cabin door;

G   D                A       D
Oh, hard times come again no more.
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.
D                             G   D
Tis the song, the sigh of the weary,

                              E       A
hard times, hard times, come again no more

     D                       A              D
Many days you have lingered around my cabin door;

G   D                A       D
Oh, hard times come again no more.
