Richard Marx - Hazard Transpose up Transpose down

Originally in Gm, I play in Em

Highest note that matters is the 2 of the minor key (“think about my life”)

EmD→ G

AmG→ Em

My Emmother came to Hazard when I was just seven

Even then the folks in town said with Dprejudiced eyes

That Asus2boy’s not right

EmThree years ago when I came to know Mary

EmFirst time that someone looked beyond the Drumors and the lies

And saw the Asus2man inside

We Cused to walk down by the Griver

She Cloved to watch the sun go Emdown

We Cused to walk along the GriEmver

And Ddream our Cway out of this Emtown

EmD→ G

AmG→ Em

EmNo one understood what I felt for Mary

No one cared until the night she went out Dwalking alone

And Asus2never came home

EmMan with a badge came knocking next morning

Here was I surrounded by a thousand Dfingers suddenly

Pointed Asus2right at me

I Cswear I left her by the Griver

I Cswear I left her safe and Emsound

I Cneed to make it to the GriEmver

And Dleave this Cold Nebraska Emtown

Vox up to the 3 of the first chord

DI think about my Clife gone by

And Emhow it’s done me Dwrong

DThere’s no escape for Cme this time

BmAll of my Crescues are Ggone, Dlong Emgone

Solo on verse chords

EmEmDAsus2x2

I Cswear I left her by the Griver

I Cswear I left her safe and Emsound

I Cneed to make it to the GriEmver

And Dleave this Cold Nebraska Emtown
