The Hard Way Every Time
     Words and Music by JIM CROCE

     Yeah, I've had my share of broken dreams
     And more than a couple of falls
     And in chasin' what I though were moonbeams
     I have run into a couple of walls
     But in looking back at the places I've been
     The changes that I've left behind
     I just look at myself to find
     I've learned the hard way every time

     'Cause I've had my share of good intentions
     And I've made my share of mistakes
     And I've learned at times it's best to bend
     'Cause if you don't well those are the breaks
     Should have listened to all the things I was told
     But I was young and too proud at the time
     Now I look at myself to find
     I learn the hard way every time

     But in looking back at the lessons I've learned
     And the mountains I wanted to climb
     I just look at myself to find
     I've learned the hard way every time

     'Cause I've had my share of broken dreams
     And more than a couple of falls
     And in chasin' what I thought were moonbeams
     I have run into a couple of walls
     But in looking back at the faces I've been
     I would be the first one to say
     When I look at myself today
     Wouldn'ta done it any other way
