Hard Times Come Again No More

Stephen Foster · 1854 · public domain

A parlor song that saves its one 3- for the chorus sigh — 'the song, the sigh of the weary' gets the chord nobody has heard yet.

Verse

Let us Cpause in life's Fpleasures and Ccount its many Amtears

while we Call sup Fsorrow with the G7poor;

there's a Csong that will Flinger forCever in our Amears —

oh, Chard times, G7come again no Cmore.

Chorus

'Tis the Csong, the Emsigh of the FweaCry:

hard Ftimes, hard times, Dmcome aG7gain no more;

many Cdays you have Flingered aCround my Amcabin door —

oh, Chard Ftimes, come aG7gain no Cmore.
