Lyrics
It's the hardknock life (G)for (C)us!
It's the hardknock (Em)life for (F)us!
'Steada treated (Em)we get (F)tricked.
'Steada kisses (Em)we get (G)kicked.
It's the hardknock (C)life!
Got no folks to speak (G)of,
(C)so it's the hardknock (Em)row we (F)hoe.
Cotton blankets (Em)'steada wool, empty bellies
'steada full.
It's the hardknock (C)life.
Don't it (Fm7)feel like the wind is always howlin'?
Don't it (Ebm7)seem like there's never any light?
Once a (C#m7)day don't you want to throw the towel in?
It's (A)easier than puttin' up a (D)fight.
No one's (Dm7)there when your dreams at night get creepy.
No one (Cm7)cares if you grow or if you shrink.
No one (Bbm7)dries when your eyes get wet and weepy.
From the (Gb)cryin', you would think this place would (B)sink.
(Baug)Santa Claus we (C)(G)never (C)see.
Santa Claus, what's (Em)that?
Who's (F)he?
No one cares for (Em)you a (F)smidge when you're in an (Em)(G)orphanage.
It's the hardknock (C)life!
