If It Was Easy

G D Em7 C G I spent half my life down a dead-end road D This honky-tonk liven it’s all I know Em7 C I’m a rough neck that wrote a few songs G I gave it all I got to have what’s on my back D It’s a hard-earned dollar D When you make your own path Em7 C Ask my babies I’m never at home G Cause if it was easy D I guess we’d all do it if its guaranteed Em There was nothin to lose but this trouble C Oh, this trouble is what makes you strong G D Cause it’s not like me to lay down and die, no Em Not after all the things that I’ve saw C Yeah, it keeps me hanging on G That’s what it takes to follow a song | G | D | Em | C G I’ve been in some places I never should have gone D There’s a little bit of right and a whole lot of wrong Em C I was hell bound and lord knows I didn’t stand a chance G But he sent me an angel who was there all along D She’s still waiting there out back at home Em And these other girls lord knows C I never give them a second glance G Cause if it was easy D I guess we’d all do it if its guaranteed Em There was nothin to lose but this trouble C Oh, this trouble is what makes you strong G D Cause it’s not like me to lay down and die, no Em Not after all the things that I’ve saw C Yeah, it keeps me hanging on G That’s what it takes to follow a song | G | D | Em | C G Cause if it was easy D I guess we’d all do it if its guaranteed Em There was nothin to lose but this trouble C Oh, this trouble is what makes you strong G D Cause it’s not like me to lay down and die, no Em Not after all the things that I’ve saw C Yeah, it keeps me hanging on G That’s what it takes to follow a song | G | D | Em | C G D Em C G That’s what it takes to follow a song
