Times Like These Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[D]In times like these everyone
could use a hand
Instead we stand around
losing ground
Fighting over the promised [A]land
And it's [C]so hard to tell if
[G]this is heaven or hell
And I could [C]never measure by [G]degrees
But [D]it's sure gettin' warm
'round [A]here in times [D]like these

[Verse 2]
In [D]times like these do I really
need a billionaire
Just takin' all my time tryna tell
me how I treat him un[A]fair?
Well [C]then I have to pay,
[G]it's the home of the brave
Gets di[C]vided into [G]them and the weak
Oh, [A]I find [D]I'm a-losing my
[A]my mind in times [D]like these

[Verse 3]
Yeah, they come and they [G]go
They're here and they're [D]not[Dm][D]
Every day I'm getting better at
losing something I [A]haven't got
I just [D]wanna do my labor, love [Dm]my girl,
and [D]help my neighbor
While I keep a little hope for my dreams
[G]But[D] it's sure getting hard, brothe[A]r,
in times like [D]these

[Interlude 1]
[D][A]
[C][G][C][G][A][D][A][D]

[Verse 4]
In [D]times like these I wish I
had a place to hide
Instead of bringing it together we're
just widening that great di[A]vide
I [C]hope and I pray [G]at the end of the day
That I [C]can somehow get
my troubles [G]to ease
But [A]I gott[D]a say, it's not looking g[A]ood,
not in times [Dm]like [D]these

[Verse 5]
Yeah, they come and they [G]go
They're cold then they're [D]hot[Dm]
Every day I'm get[D]ting better at
losing [A]something I haven't got
And I'm gon[D]na [Dm]try to run until
the whole thing's done
And I just hope I don't
end [D]up on my [G]knees
But it's [D]sure getting hard [A]to stand
up in times [Dm]like [D]these

[Verse 6]
I just [D]wanna do my labor, [A]love my [D]girl,
and help my neighbor
While I'm keeping all my joie de [G]vivre
But [Dm]it's sure [D]getting hard,
[A]brother, in times [D]like these
I could use just a little bit of [A]help
in times like [D]these[A]

[Outro 1]
