D               A  
Oh, life's so hard
     Bm             A         D      G
Someday's you need something new to wear
        D         Bm Em A
Like a brand new hat
Try so hard to work it out
People try to hold you back
On day's like that
You need another hand

D                 F#m
It's the same all over the world
 Em                    F#m
People have to earn a living
    G                       F#m
Now you're so far from the troubles at home
Em
Leave them alone
             A
And they'll work themselves out

Chorus:
        G  D  
We love it
  G           D      G      D  
Glad to be alive, I like it
 Em           A       G   D  
Working over time in loving
   G             D           G  D   A
I hope tomorrow feels like this, yeah

Dreaming hard, brand new car
And another home loan
And the phone bill is overdue
Don't give up on rainy days
I've seen the sun come shining through
On you and me
Make you feel alright

It's the same all over the world
People have to earn a living
Now you're so far from the troubles at home
Leave them alone

Chorus:
We love it
Glad to be alive, I like it
Working over time in loving
I hope tomorrow feels like this, yeah

Life's so hard
We can work it out
Well, it's a big tough city
We can work out our way

Chorus:
We love it
Glad to be alive, I like it
Working over time in loving
I hope tomorrow feels like this, yeah
We love it
Glad to be alive, I like it
Working over time in loving
And I hope tomorrow feels like this
