[Verse]
D A A7
I hear they're hiring men in Oklahoma
A D
And I've been blessed with two hard working hands
D A A7
And I'll take the job till the mill goes back to turning
A D D7
And we'll make it through the hard times again
[Chorus]
G A D
And these hard times will be the best times we've known
G Em7 A D7
Let's laugh and dream of better days to come
G A D G
These will be the good old days a little later on
D A D
And these hard times will be the best times we've known
[Verse]
D A A7
Like the preacher said in church last Sunday morning
A D
Though the Lord does things we may not understand
D A A7
We know He'll always take care of his children
A D D7
If we live every day the best we can
G Em7
And you know that heaven smiles on us
A D
And gives us all we need
Em7 A7
We've got so much we should be thankful for
D
Dry your eyes turn out the lights
G D Em7
Let me hold you close
A D D7
And these hard times will be the best times we've known
[Chorus]
G A D
And these hard times will be the best times we've known
G Em7 A D7
Let's laugh and dream of better days to come
G A D G
These will be the good old days a little later on
D A G Em7 D
And these hard times will be the best times we've known
