There are several outfits that make an adhesive solvent/remover. 3M 6041 Adhesive Remover (http://www.drillspot.com/products/322546/3M_6041_Adhesive_Remover) You may need to look for a larger bulk than a spray can. Eventually you can get it clean enough and then sand. You will need to sand if you want the hardwood to be your new surface.
