It's a Hard Life Wherever You Go sing and play along

Level 4C98 BPMNanci Griffith
Getting the sheet readyPip is finding the first note.

I am a backseat driver from America.

We drive to the left on Ford's road.

And the man at the wheel's name is Shamus.

We pass a child on the corner he knows,

and Shamus says, "Now what chance has that kid got?"

And I say from the back,

"I don't know."

He says, "There's barbed wire at all of these exits,

and there ain't no place in Belfast for that kid to go."

Yes, it's a hard life, it's a hard life,

it's a very hard life.

It's a hard life wherever you go.

And if we poison our children with hatred,

then a hard life is all that they'll know.

And there ain't no place in Belcafast for that kid to go.

I Cafe backseat driver from America.

We drive to the left on Ford's road.

And the man at the wheel's name is Shamus.

We pass a child on the corner he knows,

and Shamus says, "Now what chance has that kid got?"

And I say from the back,

"I don't know."

He says, "There's barbed wire at all of these exits,

and there ain't no place in Belfast for that kid to go."

Yes, it's a hard life, it's a hard life,

it's a very hard life.

It's a hard life wherever you go.

And if we poison our children with hatred,

then a hard life is all that they'll know.

And there ain't no place in Chi world go for those kids to go.

I was a kids to go.

Yes, it's a hard life wherever you go.
