Hard Times (No One Knows Better Than I)

A7/13    D6     F#7
My mother told me before she passed away
 Bm7         Bm7/E   D5+           D7
Said, son, when I'm gone, don't forget to pray
           G6        Edim
'Cause there'll be hard times
      D6  B7
Lord those hard times
E7/9 E7 G/B   A7/13-  D6 Cdim Em7 G/B A7sus4 A7
Who knows better than I
   A|713- D6        F#7 

Well I soon found out just what she meant
 Bm7           Bm7/E   D5+           D7
When I had to pawn my clothes just to pay the rent
           G6      Edim    D6       B7
Talkin' 'about hard times,     hard times
E7/9 E7 G/B   A7/13-  D6 Cdim Em7 G/B A4/7 A7
Who knows better than I
A7/13    D6     F#7
I had a woman, Lord,  who was always around,
  Bm7          Bm7/E D5+          D7
But when I lost my money,  she put me down.
           G6      Edim
Talkin' 'bout hard times
       D6     B7
You know those hard times,
       E7/9 E7   G/B  A7/13-  D6   Cdim Em7 G/B A4/7 A7
Yeah, Lord, who knows better than I
A7/13   D6         F#7
Lord, one of these days, there'll be no sorrow
Bm7       Bm7/E D5+ D7
When I pass away
G6     Edim   D6      B7
And no more hard times,
       E7/9 E7  G/B  A7/13-   D6  F#7 B7
Yeah, yeah, who knows better than I
       E7/9  E7  G/B  A7/13-    D6
Yeah, Lord, who knows better than I
