[Intro]:   G

 

 

     C   *C/B    C/A     C/G         C         C/B   C/A 

 Its hard    to  make it when you're straight, 
 C/G     C      C/B     C/A    C/G

 It gets better,   much better, 
     Dm           G

 The more you deviate! 
    F               C
 If you're remotely regal, 
     G7         C

 Its absolutely legal! 
         F                C
 You can blame it on your mother, 
        G7             C

 If you want to love a brother. 
      F              C
 Just find a special friend, 
                F     E      Am

 And you'll get lucky in the end! 
         D       G7                  C           G
 For its hard to make it when you're straight! 

 

     C    C/B    C/A     C/G  F     F/E   G/D  

 Its hard!           (So very hard)  
 G   C    C/B    C/A     C/G  F     F/E   G/D

 Its hard!           (So very hard) 

 

 G   C   C/B    C/A     C/G         C         C/B  C/A 
 Its hard    to make it when you're straight, 
 C/G          C       C/B    C/A    C/G     Dm           G

 When there's nothing in the closet     you want to liberate! 
         F              C         G7         C
 If your instincts as a pansy are only transient, 
         F             C           G7           C

 You can talk about it freely, without embarrassment, 
            F              C

 But if the ring upon your finger 

        F    E            Am

 Is the only thing that's bent...... 
          D       G7                  C           G
 Then its hard to make it when you're straight!

 

     C    C/B

It's hard     to...

 

 

 

 

NB:

     *Chords shown as (C/B) etc indicate the chord to

      be played, followed by the accompanying bass note 

     (in this case, a C chord with a B bass note). These 

      bass notes don't have to be played, and the chord 

      can be just played on it's own (in this case, a 

      C chord).

 

          If you're remotely regal, it's absolutely legal, oh, hahahahahaha!! That's a good one.
