Intro: D--Am--C--G--D [2t]

DIt don't come Ameasy, you Cknow it Gdon't come Deasy [2t]

v.1
DGot to pay your dues if you Amwant to sing the blues
And you Cknow it don't come Deasy
You don't have to shout Amor leap about
You can Ceven play them Deasy

FForget about the past and all your Gsorrows
FThe future won't last, it will Asoon be your tomorrow

v.2
I don't ask for much, I only want trust
An' you know it don't come easy
And this love of mine keeps growin' all the time
And you know it just ain't easy

Open up your heart, let's come together
Use a little love and we will make it work out better
