[Verse 1]
F#m E D
I stood at the top of the highest mountain,
F#m E D D
And still couldn’t see the light,
F#m E D
And I walked the width of the universe,
E A/C# D E
To lengthen this short sight,
F#m E D
So we’ll rally the troops, let’s go to war,
F#m E D E
And die side by side,
F#m E D
The sun will set, scarlet red,
E A/C# D
Sat in a monet sky,
E A/C# D D*
Side by side we’ll die.
[Chorus]
Dsus2* A*
Is it so hard to be,
E*
Hard to be free,
Dsus2 F#m E Esus4
When everything is crumbling,
Dsus2 F#m
And it’s hard to feel,
Esus4 Dsus2
Like I’m not on a spinning wheel,
F#m Esus4 Esus4
Round in circles tumbling.
[Interlude]
A/#C Dsus2 E Dsus2
Aah . . .
A/#C Dsus2 E Dsus2
Aah . . .

[Verse 2]
F#m Esus4 Dsus2
I thought I conquered the unconquerable,
F#m Esus4 Dsus2
But there’s nothing to show for it,
F#m Esus4 Dsus2
You look at me, your eyes so miserable,
Esus4 A/C# Dsus2
And it’s so hard to admit,
Esus4 A/C# Dsus2
I’m the reason for it.
[Chorus]
Dsus2* A*
Is it so hard to be,
E*
Hard to be free,
Dsus2 F#m E Esus4
When everything is crumbling,
Dsus2 F#m
And it’s hard to feel,
Esus4 Dsus2
Like I’m not on a spinning wheel,
F#m Esus4 Esus4
Round in circles tumbling.
[Interlude]
A/#C Dsus2 E Dsus2
Yeah . . .
A/#C Dsus2 E Dsus2
Ooh . . .
A/#C Dsus2 E Dsus2
Ooh . . .
A/#C Dsus2 E Dsus2
Ooh . . .

[Outro]
Dsus2* A*
Is it so hard to be,
Esus2*
Hard to be free,
Dsus2 F#m E Esus4 Dsus2
When everything is crumbling,
Dsus2 F#m
And it’s hard to feel,
Esus4 Dsus2
Like I haven’t burnt the last reel,
F#m Esus4 E
The finale is a mystery.
