Hard Time Killing Floor
Skip James, as performed by Buddy Guy
E (2)
Hard times are here
And everywhere you go
A (2)
Times are harder
Than they ever been before
Chorus:
E (3)
Um, hm-hm
Um-hm
Um, hm-hm
E (½)
Um, hm-hm-hm
Turnaround: / E - - - / E - B7 - /
E (2)
You know that people are driftin’
from door to door
A (2)
But they can't find no heaven
I don't care where they go
Chorus
E (2)
People, if I ever can get up off
this hard killing floor
A (2)
Lord, I'll never get down
Down this low no more
Chorus
E (2)
Well, you hear me singin' this song
Old lonesome song
A (2)
People, you know these hard times
Can't last us so long
Chorus x2
