verse 2:
E. Bm
They tell me it takes sorrow, boy
A E
To help you feel the joy
They say it takes poverty
To let you love a toy
Now you can't have the good
Until you've shared the bad
Chorus:
Don't let it get too sad (x3)
No, not this time, time
Back to D-C play. but this time Houser kicks on Distortion
towards the end of that part, and the chords go from G-C
listen and you'll see.
verse 3:
They say it takes hardship, boy
To let you love the rest
Sometimes underneath the load
Is where I show my best
Go, put your work clothes on
Go and leave your mark
And they say
Chorus:
Don't let it get too dark (x3)
No, not this time
