D
What's a boy to do when faith is cruel
     A
Keep on keeping on try to bend the rules
     D                                 A
I'll do anything to find a way to your heart
       D
I got a rabbits foot but luck don't come
      A
Got my fingers crossed and they go numb
     D                   B
I can hold my breath and wish for you
E
I need a miracle to make it thru


[Chorus]
D       E
Life is hard
A
I need a remedy
D       E      A
For the way I feel
   D           E       A         D
My bread keeps landing Jam Side Down
                       E                  D
Say you'll be there to spread love around


[Main Riff]


D
I was sweet on you that's how I felt
    A
Got a butter heart you made it melt
     D                 B
Like a big eyed kid in a candy store
 E
I had a little sugar now I want some more


[Chorus]
D       E
Life is hard
A
I need a remedy
D       E      A
For the way I feel
   D           E       A         D
My bread keeps landing Jam Side Down
                       E
Say you'll be there to spread love around
