(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

(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

And what I give you is nothing

Yeah, when the hard times are coming 
D                         A 
 You know you're on your own

          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                         Bm   
 You know you're on your own 
Em                     D   
 Just like a sinking stone 
A                       Bm

Em            D 
 Just like a sinking stone,  
A 
 yeah
