Hard Way (AAA Acoustic)

[Verse 1]
Well, here I sit once again
I'm missing you like crazy, baby
I've screwed up again and again
I keep makin' the same mistakes
Don't wanna be an old man
With nothin' figured out yet, baby
I gotta start sometime soon
I wish I never hurt you
I wish I never hurt you, alright

[Chorus]
I'm doing the best I can
I'm livin' like any man
My father used to say it to me – he said
"While you're young
You gotta learn the hard way"
I'm doing the best I can
I'm livin' like any man, yeah
My father used to say it to me – he said
"While you're young
You gotta learn the hard way, son"

[Verse 2]
I can't call you up to talk
I know you're movin' on now, baby
You've learnt to steer real clear
Of guys that resemble me, yeah
But don't I know I'm on my own
It's all about decisions, baby
And this was the ultimate test
And once again I failed myself
And I failed you too
And it hurts like hell, woo

[Chorus]
I'm doin' the best I can
I'm livin' like any man
My father used to say it to me – he said
"While you're young
You gotta learn the hard way"
I'm doin' the best I can
I'm livin' like any man, yeah
My father used to say it to me – he said
"While you're young
You gotta learn the hard way", yeah

[Keyboard Solo]
Mmm, oh
Woo!
Yeah
And I say it, boy
Gotta learn the hard way
Gotta learn, gotta, yeah
Gotta learn the hard way
Woo, woo
Hey
Come on, yeah
Oooh
Gotta learn the hard way, yeah
It's the only way you're gonna learn
