C#m7         C#m7/A
Thank you God for this great opportunity
   C#m7                       C#m7/A
To share with you exactly how I feel
        C#m7       C#m7/A
I'm not well and I think that I should tell you
       C#m7                           C#m7/A
That I think I got the raw end of the deal
             C#m               A
Don't get me wrong, cause it's not like I blame you
    C#m                                 A
But sometimes things get crazy on their own
     C#m           A
I'm ashamed of the way I point my finger
      C#m                                 A
Cause deep down I have reaped what I have sown

[Chorus]

   E
Oh, life is hard
    F#m
But so is everything
D                     A
 Give my regards to a man who cares
E
 If I succeed
       F#m
I will save my fellow man
D                        A
 And if I fail I'll just stand and stare

[Verse 2]

        C#m7             C#m7/A
Such is life, Lord and I know that you're aware
              C#m7                         C#m7/A
That you're a drug to me, a drug within my fear
      C#m7        C#m7/A
But I love you, a junkie to your silence
  C#m7                              C#m7/A
A wise man who's words, I'll never hear
        C#m   A
What to do, I feel as if I'm floating
    C#m                           A
Not aware or in control of what I am
    C#m               A
God bless me, take me out of this existence
       C#m                     A
End my role as the sacrificial lamb

[Chorus]

   E
Oh, life is hard
    F#m
But so is everything
D                     A
 Give my regards to a man who cares
E
 If I succeed
       F#m
I will save my fellow man
D                        A
 And if I fail I'll just stand and stare

[Solo]

[Chorus]

   E
Oh, life is hard
    F#m
But so is everything

 Give my regards to a man who cares
E
 If I succeed
       F#m
I will save my fellow man
D                        A
 And if I fail I'll just stand and stare
E E       E
  Life is hard
    F#m
But so is everything
D                     A
 Give my regards to a man who cares
E
 If I succeed
       F#m
I will save my fellow man
D                        A         C#m7  C#m7/A
 And if I fail I'll just stand and stare

 I'll just stand and stare
