(Roger McGuinn)

In times of despair

I think about the good things that you've done

And though you're not there

I sometimes ask myself, is anyone?

It's hard being human

When the whole world's a trap

But somehow I know

That everything's gonna work out all right

I might lose my patience

But won't you please try to understand

I've got obligations

And I intend to face them and take my stand

Oh, it's so hard being human

With only troubles in sight

But somehow I know

That everything's gonna work out all right Yes I do, yeah!

Stick by the baby

In spite of my qualms

That's all I want you to do

And try to help me (Help me)

When I'm down (Help me)

And I'll take good care of you

I want to thank you

For all the tender loving that you give

It brightens my feelings

And gives me strength and need to live

Oh, it's so hard being human

With all those troubles in sight

But somehow I know

That everything's gonna work out all right

Somehow I know

That everything's gonna work out all right

Somehow I know

That everything's gonna work out all right
