Verse:
G Em/G Am D
We sat around the table and drank a bottle of wine
G Em/G Am D
And it poured around us like a moat till no one could get us, and I was fine
G Em/G Am D
And I said, "Haven't I paid my dues by now, haven't I paid my dues by now
G Em Am D
Haven't I paid my dues by now, don't I get the right to choose?
D C Dsus4
And I choose you to take up all of my time
C Dsus4
I choose you because you're funny and kind
C Em Am D
I want easy people from now on"
Chorus:
G Em/G Am D
Easy people, people
G Em/G Am D
Easy people, people
G Em/G Am D
My house is full of empty rooms and broken frames and other people's stuff
G Em/G Am D
In my house we see by Christmas lights and your TV, and that seems to be enough
D C Dsus4
To see what we want to see
C Dsus4
You let me be who I want to be
C Em Am D
And we'll be easy from now on, from now on
Chorus
C/G Dsus4 C/G Dsus4
Why can't I be easy, why can't I be easy like you?
Intro
G Em/G Am D
For you I would give the songs I write, the words I pray, the morning light
G Em/G Am D
That pumps into this room today, if you would only rise, if you would only say
D C Dsus4
"I want you, you take up all of my time
C Dsus4
I want you because you're funny and kind
C Em Am D
And we'll be easy from now on, from now on"
Chorus a bunch of times
Intro w/ Ending
Chord shapes:
G (320033)
C(x32010) Look to hammer on B string for Cmaj7 feel
Em/G(022003) Sometimes the G isn’t there, but it isn’t that important
Am(x02210) Look for hammer on B string
D(xx0232) Look to hammer on E string for Dsus2 feel
Dsus4(x5403x) This could be slid into from the C (because of same shape).
