All Of The Hard Days Are Gone Lyrics And Guitar Chords
Kevin McKrell Thorntree Music BMI. All of the hard days are gone sheet music now included. Has been recorded by The Kingston Trio-Hair of the Dog-Seamus Kennedy-North Sea Gas-Woods Tea Company to name a few name bands. It has been recorded by a ton of folks who think it is a trad folk tune, so I see it quite a bit on CD's attributed to Trad.The folk process at work. Sent to the site by Kevin McKrell.
[G]All of the hard [D]days are [G]gone
it’s[C] all beer and whiskey and [G]songs from now on
[D]Laugh at the darkness and [Em]dance until dawn
[C]All of the [D]hard days are [G]gone .
We’re all safe and warm here my friends
The dard days are gone they won’t come again
So raise up your voices ,give us a song
All of the hard days are gone.
Life has been cloudy and grey
Take the bad memories and put them away
For the sun has come out ,we have waited so long
All of the hard days are gone
So Raise up your glasses and sing
For the hard days are gone
they don’t mean a thing
If you want to be happy I will take you along
All of the hard days are gone
it’s[C] all beer and whiskey and [G]songs from now on
[D]Laugh at the darkness and [Em]dance until dawn
[C]All of the [D]hard days are [G]gone .
We’re all safe and warm here my friends
The dard days are gone they won’t come again
So raise up your voices ,give us a song
All of the hard days are gone.
Life has been cloudy and grey
Take the bad memories and put them away
For the sun has come out ,we have waited so long
All of the hard days are gone
So Raise up your glasses and sing
For the hard days are gone
they don’t mean a thing
If you want to be happy I will take you along
All of the hard days are gone
