Artist: David Bazan
Song: Hard To Be
Album: Curse Your Branches
This is obviously minus intro and outro. I watched a few live videos and listened
to the album to figure it out. When I edited all this the chords lined up properly
with the corresponding words so if it's lined up wrong sorry. This is my first submission.

Am Em F C
And helpless to fight it we should all be satisfied
Dm Am F Em
With the magical explanation for why the living die
And why it's...

Hard to be
Dm Am
Hard to be
F C
Hard to be
Dm Am
A decent Human being
Dm G C F
Childbirth is painful toil to grow our food
Dm G
Ignorance made us hungry
C F
Information made us no good
Dm Em
Every burden misunderstood
Am Em F C
I swung my tassel to the left side of my cap
Dm Am F Em
Knowing after graduation there would be no going back
Am Em F C
and no congratulations from my faithful family
Dm Am F Em
some of whom are already fasting to intercede for me
Because it's...
F C
Hard to be
Dm Am
Hard to be
F C
Hard to be
Dm Am
A decent human being
