(Verse)
Bm Em
When you are winning
D A
When you are winning, I'm with you
Bm Em
I'm sun and springing
D A
Yeah, sun and springing's what I do
Bm Em
And I'm your best friend
D A
Yeah, I'm your best friend, I pretend
Bm Em
Just like a new trend
D A
You know this friendship will soon end
(Chorus)
Bm
'Cause when the hard times are coming
Em
My true colors show
D
And what I give you is nothing
A
I say, you're on your own
Bm
'Cause when the hard times are coming
Em
I'm the first to run
D
So for the hard times
A
You know you're on your own
(INTERLUDE)
Bm Em D A
(Verse)
Bm Em
You made a bad stroke
D A
You made a bad stroke, you should have known
Bm Em
'Cause I'm all for smalltalk
D A
If you want smalltalk then pick up the phone
Bm Em
And I'll be your best friend
D A
Well, at least now for a little while
Bm Em
But don't go around the bend
D A
'Cause I can only stand you when you smile
(Chorus)
Bm
'Cause when the hard times are coming
Em
My true colors show
D
And what I give you is nothing
A
I say, you're on your own
Bm
'Cause when the hard times are coming
Em
I'm the first to run
D
So for the hard times
A G
You know you're on your own
(POST-Chorus)
A Em
Just like a sinking stone
G A
A friend in need is
Bm
a friend indeed
Em
That's what I've been told
G A
But a friend like me
F#m
lacks that heart of gold
(BUILD-UP)
Bm Em
'Cause when the hard times are coming
D A
And what I give you is nothing
Bm Em
Yeah, when the hard times are coming
D A
You know you're on your own
(Chorus)

'Cause when the hard times are coming

My true colors show

And what I give you is nothing

'Cause when the hard times are coming

I'm the first to run

So for the hard times

You know you're on your own

I say, you're on your own

Just like a sinking stone,

what I give you is nothing
