  A                         
You call a truce and then you start a fight, 
  A 
you change your signals like a traffic light 
                Bm                  A 
cause you're a hard, a hard one to know. 

  A 
Around your heart you've tied a fishing line, 
  A 
You cast it out there just to see who'll bite 
                Bm                   A 
cause you're a hard, a hard one to know. 


  E                          Bm 
I toss and turn but I just can't get to sleep 
  D                               A 
when I start thinkin' 'bout what you do to me. 
  E                          Bm 
You're like a flower garden buried in snow, 
          E           A 
you're a hard one to know. 


  A 
You give your love out like an auctioneer. 
  A 
Your moves are jumpy and your words aren't clear 
                Bm                  A 
cause you're a hard, a hard one to know. 

  A 
First you smother then you disengage  
  A 
Your tears of joy dissolve to tears of rage 
                Bm                  A 
cause you're a hard, a hard one to know. 


  E                          Bm 
I toss and turn but I just can't get to sleep 
  D                               A  
when I start thinkin' 'bout what you do to me. 
  E                          Bm 
You drag your feet as you swing to and fro, 
          E           A 
you're a hard one to know.

And I try to love ya but you won't let me in.

You say it's ending before it can begin. 
 E                             Bm 
You tell to stay and then you tell me to go, 
 E 
you're a hard one to know.
