Les Jours tristes Chords & Lyrics by Yann Tiersen
Les Jours tristes
guitar chords lyrics
Capo on 3 makes it easy (so drop it 3 semitones), then you can play B7 instead of
B, to stay away from the barre chords.
Gm Eb Gm
It s hard, hard not to sit on your hands
Eb Gm
And bury your head in the sand
Eb Gm
Hard not to make other plans
Eb F Eb
And claim that you ve done all you can all along
F Eb
And life must go on
Gm Eb Gm
It s hard, hard to stand up for what s right
Eb Gm
And bring home the bacon each night
Eb Gm
Hard not to break down and cry
Eb F Eb
When every idea that you ve tried has been wrong
F Eb
But you must go on
Bb F Gm
It s hard but you know it s worth the fight
D Bb
Cause you know you ve got the truth on your side
F Gm D
When the accusations fly, hold tight
Bb F Gm
Don t be afraid of what they ll say
D Bb
Who cares what cowards think, anyway
F Gm D
They will understand one day, one day
Gm Eb Gm
It s hard, hard when you re here all alone
Eb Gm
And everyone else has gone home
Eb Gm
Harder to know right from wrong
Eb F Eb
When all objectivities gone, and it s gone
F Eb
But you still carry on
Gm Eb Gm
Cause you, you are the only one left
Eb Gm
And you ve got to clean up the mess
Eb Gm
You know you ll end like the rest
Eb F Eb
Bitter and twisted, unless you stay strong
F Eb
and you carry on
Bb F Gm
It s hard but you know it s worth the fight
D Bb
Cause you know you ve got the truth on your side
F Gm D
When the accusations fly, hold tight
Bb F Gm
Don t be afraid of what they ll say
D Bb
Who cares what cowards think, anyway
F Gm D Gm
They will understand one day, one day, one day
