Hayes Carll - Times like these

^DIn times like these everyone could use a hand Instead we stand around losing ground Fighting for the promised ^Aland It's ^Cso hard to tell if this is ^Gheaven or hell And I could ^Cnever measure by ^Gdegrees But it's ^Dsure gettin' warm 'round ^Ahere in times like t^Dhese

^DIn times like these do I really need a billionaire Just takin' all my time tryin' to tell me I was treated ^Aunfair? Well then ^CI got to pay as the h^Gome of the brave get^Cs divided into ^Gthem the we Oh I ^Dfind I'm a-losing my ^Amind in times like ^Dthese

^DYeah they come and they ^Ggo They're in and then ^Dnot ^DEvery day I'm getting better at losing something I haven't ^Agot I just ^Dmwanna do my labor, love my girl, and help my neighbor While I ^Dkeep a little hope for my ^Gdreams But it's ^Dsure getting hard, ^Abrother, in times like ^Dthese

^DIn times like these I wish someone was on my side Instead of bringing it together we're just widening the great ^Adivide I ^Chope and I pray at the ^Gend of the day I can ^Csomehow get my ^Gtroubles to ease But I ^Dgotta say, it's not looking ^Agood, not in times like^D these

^DYeah they come and they ^Ggo They're cold then they're ^Dhot ^DI just try to keep the world from turning me to something I'm ^Anot I'm ^Dmgonna try to run until the whole thing's done And I just hope I don't end up on my ^Gknees But it's ^Dsure getting hard to ^Astand up in times like ^Dthese

I^D just wanna do my labor, love my girl, and help my neighbor While I'm keeping all my joie de vi^Gvre But it's s^Dure getting hard, ^Abrother, in times like ^Dthese I could use just a little bit of ^Ahelp in times like ^Dthese
