Intro - E - F# - G - F# - E = 2x's 
 
 
 
(verse 1) 
E  
Times are tough on an honest heart, 
C#m  
People don't follow through with what they start, 
A                                E   G-F#-E  
Lyin' eyes looking at me up and down, 
E  
Makin' talk that's only cheap, 
C#m  
Makin' promises they never keep, 
D                      A 
But I keep lookin' for,  
                       B 
what I still haven't found, 

E  
One honest heart that I can believe in, 
E                          G    F#     E   
Two lovin' arms that will never let me go, 
E  
One good man that I can count on, 
G                  F#                        E  - F# - G = 2x's 
It shouldn't be so hard finding one honest heart, 
 
 
(verse 2) 
  
Now I've been close a time or two, 
I thought I saw my dream comin true, 
But I was just livin' in a fairy tale, 
I won't play the fool again (I won't play the fool again), 
I won't play a game I can't win,  
But I still have faith and,  
I keep tellin' myself there's, 
 
 
 
(chorus) 
E  
One honest heart that I can believe in, 
E                          G    F#     E   
Two lovin' arms that will never let me go, 
E  
One good man that I can count on, 
G                  F#                        E 
It shouldn't be so hard finding one honest heart, 
 
 
(lead chords - E - A  - D - A - E - E-F#-G-A) 
 
 
(bridge) 
B  
I don't think I'm asking too much, 
     C#m                D 
Just once in my life I want to be touched by, 
 
 
 
(chorus) 
E  
One honest heart that I can believe in, 
E                          G    F#     E   
Two lovin' arms that will never let me go, 
E  
One good man that I can count on, 
G                  F#         
It shouldn't be so hard (It's shouldn't be so hard), 
G                  F#                        E  
It shouldn't be so hard finding one honest heart,
