Hard Drugs

[Verse 1]
D
Hate is a hard drug
G           D
When it gets in your blood
A                 Bm
Spreads likes a poison
              G                      D
'Til you can't see what you've become
D
And anger's a hard drug
G                         D
It's like playing with matches
A                   Bm
You can burn your house down
          G                  D
Before you even know what happened
 
 
[Chorus]
G                            Bm A/C# D
Oh, these are hard drugs to quit
G                            Bm A/C# D
Oh, these are hard drugs to quit
            G            D
And I've tried so many times
             F#7          Bm
But they're not easy to kick
G             A             D
But here I am, trying again
 
 
[Verse 2]
D
Greed is a hard drug
G                       D
Whether you buy or sell
A                     Bm
The love of God and money
           G                      D
Are two things that don't mix well
D
And fear is a hard drug
G                   D
When it hits your veins
A                   Bm
I need more than a fix
           G                 D
I need a cure, I need Your grace
 
 
[Chorus]
     G                            Bm  A D
And, oh, these are hard drugs to quit
G                            Bm  A D
Oh, these are hard drugs to quit
        G            D
I've tried so many times
             F#7         Bm
But they're not easy to kick
G             A             D
But here I am, trying again
 
 
[Bridge]
          G                         D          A
Give me peace to accept the things I cannot change
       G                            D  A
And courage to change the things I can
           G        Bbm     Bm            A        G
And the wisdom to know the difference between the two
                G        A          Bm A/C# D
'Cause what I can't, I know You can do
               G        A          D
Yeah, what I can't, I know You can do
 
 
[Chorus]
G                             Bm A/C# D
Oh, these are hard drugs to quit
G                             Bm A/C# D
Oh, these are hard drugs to quit
            G            D
And I've tried so many times
              Bbm             Bm
But they're tough as hell to kick
G         A             Bm
Here I am, trying again
                 G           A             D
Oh, I know it, but here I am, trying again
