With Disney and Cronkite and Martin Luther And I believed, I believed, I believed Now I am the backseat driver from America And I am not at the wheel of control And I am guilty, I am war, and I am the root of all evil Lord, and I can't drive on the left side of the road 'Cause it's a hard life, it's a hard life, it's a very hard life It's a hard life wherever you go And if we poison our children with hatred Then the hard life is all that they'll know And there ain't no place in this world for those kids to go 'Cause it's a hard life wherever you go NOTE for a 2nd guitar: Judy Neuwirth (judynew@pipeline.com) tells me that Frank Christian (a friend and backup guitarist of Nanci Griffith's) was her guitar teacher at one point, and he said that when he toured with Nanci, he played these chords over Nanci's D C G sequence (NO capo for Frank's chords)...
