It May Be Difficult

Music and Lyrics

by

Charles Nathan  

Here is an edited, one-chorus solo piano rendition of It May Be Difficult from SMP's 2024 album production, In the Autumn Years.  More than a melody, it is a composition. Being through-composed, with the signature strength of the bridge, this one has substance that dives extra deep.  Due to the instrumental recording, the lyrics are below.

It May Be Difficult
Lyric by Charles Nathan (ASCAP)


It may be difficult to find
Almost impossible to find
Someone loving and tender
That you can surrender your heart to


It may be difficult to find
But not impossible to find
If you're lucky you may be
Among the few that do


The world's a giant wheel of chance that's on a fabulous spin
And there are those who will win
But what about the rest that never do
What will they do


Love may be hard to find for some
But I'm a very special one
For its easy so easy for me
I've found love lots of times, lots of times, lots of times  (just one “lots of times” here - the album version has 3.)

 Things to be aware of:

  • If you need a key that isn't listed, let us know and we'll get you that key. 

  • As a rule our melodies are published so the largest part of them falls on the staff.  However, if you want your purchased lead sheet's melody to be an octave higher or lower on the staff, let us know and we'll fix it.

  • The lead sheet sample is in the key of the related audio track.

  • EXTRA VALUE: All lead sheets come with 3 types of lyric sheets.  Samples of the lead-sheet, and the 3 included lyric sheets can be seen below.  Regarding the 3 types of lyric sheets, there's one Lyric vocal only, one Lyric with chord spaces, and one Lyric with no chord spaces. The Lyric with chord spaces is formatted so you can write in the chords according to your key.  The Lyric with no chord spaces is formatted for arrangers so they can write in the chords the way they hear them.  

  • IMPORTANT: when printing-out, be careful to select only the pages you want.  If you don't, since each download purchase is a single document, where in this case the concerned download is 4 pages long, all the pages will print.  To make sure you don't print pages that you didn't intend to, please select the pages you want to print BEFORE clicking on "print."
