HARD TIMES - Ace Frehley

[Drum Intro]
[Rhythm Fig. 1]

[Rhythm Fig. 1]
Well, I recall days in the city
And I think back, "Oh what a pity"
Rememberin' how it wasn't pretty
Every day life in the city

[Rhythm Fig. 1]
Out in the street we had to take it
With friends around, couldn't it
What wasn't there, we had to make it
Hangin' out down in the city

[Rhythm Fig. 2]
The hard times are dead and gone
But the hard times have made me strong
And the hard times have made me see
That the hard times ain't where I wanna be

[Rhythm Fig. 1]
We had to fight to be accepted
It wasn't right and I protested
For hangin' out we got arrested
Every day life in the city

[Rhythm Fig. 1]
We'd go to school and then we'd cut out
Go to the park and space our heads out
We called it fun but there was some doubt
Hangin' out down in the city

[Rhythm Fig. 2]
The hard times are dead and gone
But the hard times have made me strong
And the hard times have made me see
That the hard times ain't where I wanna be

[Rhythm Fig. 3]
I don't wanna be there or even think back
I don't wanna be there, now I'm on the right track, yeah

[Solo (Guitar 1)] w/[Rhythm Fig. 1]
[Solo (Guitar 2)] w/[Rhythm Fig. 1]

[Rhythm Fig. 2]
The hard times are dead and gone
But the hard times have made me strong
And the hard times have made me see
That the hard times ain't where I wanna be

[Rhythm Fig. 3] w/{Riff.1] (Until End)
I don't wanna be there or even think back
I don't wanna be there, 'cause I'm on the right track
Now I'm on the right track
I'm finally on the right track
I'm finally on the right track
