(Chorus)
D             Am         C       G           D
It don't come easy,  You know it don't come easy.     (x2)

(Verse 1)   
D                           Am
Got to pay your dues if you wanna sing the blues,
        C                  D                             Am
And you know it don't come easy. You don't have to shout or leap about
                       
        C              D     F                                  G
You can even play them easy. Forget about the past and all your sorrow.
   
    F                          A
The future won't last, It will soon be over tomorrow.

(verse 2)
D                      Am                      C                  D
I don't ask for much I only want trust and you know it don't come easy.

D                           Am                           C
And this love of mine keeps growing all the time And you know it just

      D     F                              G
ain't easy. Open up your heart, Let's come together,

F                              A
Use a little love, And we will make it work out better.

(verse 3)
D                           Am
Got to pay your dues if you wanna sing the blues
        C                  D                             Am
And you know it don't come easy, You don't have to shout or leap about
                       
        C              D     F                               G      
You can even play them easy. Peace remember peace is how we make it.

F                                 A
Here within your reach, If you're big enough to take it.

D                      Am                      C                  D
I don't ask for much I only want trust and you know it don't come easy.

D                           Am                           C
And this love of mine keeps growing all the time And you know it don't

     D
come easy.  (End on the Guitar Intro).
