All of my friends don't comprehend me Their kind of style it just offends me I want to take them I want to shake them 'Til they pay me some heed You've got to ride in one direction Until you find the right connection It's so hard to find It's so hard to find Who's going to cure The heart of a man in need' (Guitar solo over verse and chorus chords) Who's going to give you Real happiness' Who's going to give you contentedness' Who's going to lead you' Who's going to feed you' And cut you free' Well I've sailed every ship in the sea But I traveled this world in misery It's so hard to find It's so hard to find Who's going to cure The heart of a man in need'
