[Intro]
G G7 G
[Verse 1]
G
My days are so busy, it's making me dizzy
G
There's so much I gotta do
G
There's lunches and meetings and poetry readings
G
And endless interviews
G
Gotta pose for a portrait and how I deplore
G
Sittin' there for eternity
G
Then it's off to the inn where my innkeeper friend
G
Wants to name a drink after me
[Pre-Chorus]
C
Then it's back to my room, where I resume
C7
My attempt to write a hit
G
Just me and my beer and the terrible fear
N.C.
That I might be losing it
[Chorus]
G
And it's hard (it's hard)
G
It's hard (it's hard)
G A D
It's really, really hard
D B/D# Em
So very, very hard
C Cm
I make it look easy but honey, believe me
G Gsus4
It's hard (it's hard)
G Gsus4
It's hard (it's hard)
G A D
It's so incredibly hard
D B/D# Em C
So inconceivably, unbelievably hard
N.C. G G*
It's hard to be the bard
G G*
Honestly, I don't know how I do it.
G G* G G*
There's only so much of me to go around
[Verse 2]
G
I've got so many fans with so many demands
G
I can hardly go take a piss (he can't pee)
G
Be it theater freak or the autograph-seeker
G
They all want a piece of this (gimme, gimme)
G
It's a cross that I bear, I'm like Jesus, I swear
G
It's a burden but I suffer through it (he is suffering)
G
It's all part of the game, the trappings of fame
G
But somebody's gotta do it (so he does it)
[Pre-Chorus]
C
And I know, I know, I gotta go
C7
And get back to my pen and ink
G
Oh, don't make me do it, don't make me go through it
N.C.
Can somebody get me a drink?
[Chorus]
G Gsus4
And it's hard (it's hard)
G Gsus4
It's hard (it's hard)
G A D
It's really, really hard
D B/D# Em
It's sexy but it's hard
C
This bar that I'm raising
Cm
To be this amazing!
G Gsus4
It's hard (it's hard)
G Gsus4
It's hard (it's hard)
G A D
It's so annoyingly hard
D B/D# Em C
So unavoidably, un-enjoyably hard
N.C. G G*
It's hard to be the bard, baby!
G G*
Ugh. I know writing made me famous,
G G* G G*
But being famous is just so much more fun.
[Break]
F N.C.
You see, what people just don't understand
C
Is that writing's demanding
N.C. G Gsus4
It's mentally challenging and it's a bore
G Gsus4
It's such a chore
G Gsus4
To sit in a room by yourself
G Gsus4
Oh my god, I just hate it!
F N.C. F7 C
And you're trying to find an opening line
N.C. G
Or a brilliant idea and you're pacing the floor
Gsus4 G Gus4 G Gsus4 G G7
And hoping for just a bit of divine intervention
F E
That one little nugget, that one little spark
Am D
Then Eureka! You find it, you're ready to start
A5 N.C.
So now you can write, right? Wrong!
G G#m
You're not even close, you remember that, damn it
A5 D
Your play's gotta be in iambic pentameter!
A5 E5
So you write down a word but it's not the right word
A5 E5
So you try a new word but you hate the new word
A5 E5
And you need a good word but you can't find the word
A5 E5
Oh, where is it, what is it, what is it, where is it?
N.C.
Blah-blah-blah, blah-blah-blah, blah-blah-blah, blah-ah-ha-ha—
N.C
Sir? Halloou!
C C7 C C7
You asked for information on what Nicholas Bottom is writing.
C C7
Our spy is here with the news
C C7
Did he see me losing it? He's half blind, sir
C C7
Oh, good. Then he only saw half of it. You see what I did?
C C7
(Ha, ha)
Oh, yes, yes, yes, wonderful, ha ha
C C7
Speak, man. What news?
C C7 G G*
I saw Nick Bottom, I did. He paid a soothsayer to foresee
G G*
What Shakespeare's greatest play would be
G G* G G*
That sneaky little thief! Why doesn't he come up with his own ideas!?
G7
It's hard. No, it is, isn't it?
G7
It's really the worst (it's hard)
G
Makes me wonder why I didn't think of that first (it's hard)
G7
Hard to alleviate the pressure to create (it's hard)
D7
Hard to do something as good as the last thing I did that was already great!
[Chorus]
G G A D
(It's hard) (so hard that he is stealing from the bard)
It's hard!
D B/D# Em
Well I'll hoist him by his petard
C G
All that I need is a clever disguise (clever disguise)
A5 Cm Em
I'll make him pay for his devious lies (devious lies!)
G
Let him do all the tedious stuff
D B/D# Em C
The work that's terribly and unbearably hard (oh, hard)
[Break]
C7
All right, Nick Bottom. I think Shakespeare needs to find out
D7
What Shakespeare's next big hit will be!
[Chorus]
G Gsus4
'Cause it's hard! (it's hard, it's totally hard)
G Gsus4
It's hard! (it's hard, it's totally hard)
G Gsus4
It's hard! (it's hard, it's totally hard)
N.C.
Fortune and fame, eEveryone knows my name
N.C. G
I can't help it, it's still freaking hard.
