We  sat around the table  and drank  a bottle of wine
And  it poured around  us like a moat till no one  could get us, and I was  fine
 And I said, "Haven't  I paid my dues  by now, haven't  I paid my dues  by now
 Haven't  I paid my dues  by now, don't  I get the right to choose?
 And I  choose you  to take up all of my time
 I choose you  because you're funny and kind
I  want easy  people from  now on"
Easy  people,  people
Easy  people,  people
My  house is full of empty rooms  and broken frames  and other people's  stuff
 In my house  we see by Christmas  lights and your TV,  and that seems  to beenough
To  see what  we want to see
 You let me be  who I want to be
 And we'll  be easy  from now  on, from  now on
Why  can't I be easy,  why can't I  be easy like you?
 For you  I would give the songs  I write, the words  I pray, the morning  light
 That pumps  into this room  today, if you would  only rise, if you would  only say
 "I  want you,  you take up all of my time
 I want you  because you're funny and kind
 And we'll  be easy  from now  on,  from now on"
 Chorus a bunch of times
 Intro w/ Ending
 Chord shapes:
 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).

[C]We sat around the t[Em/G]able and d[Am]rank a bottle of w[D]ine

[C]And it poured ar[Em/G]ound us like a moat till no o[Am]ne could get us, and I [D]was fine

And I said, "H[C]aven't I paid my [Em/G]dues by now, ha[Am]ven't I paid my d[D]ues by now

H[C]aven't I paid my d[Em]ues by now, d[Am]on't I get the right to cho[D]ose?

And I[D] choose y[C]ou to take up all of my [Dsus4]time

I choose y[C]ou because you're funny and k[Dsus4]ind

[C]I want e[Em]asy people f[Am]rom now on[D]"

[C]Ea[Em/G]sy peo[Am]ple, p[D]eople
[C]Ea[Em/G]sy peo[Am]ple, p[D]eople

[C]My house is full of empty [Em/G]rooms and broken f[Am]rames and other pe[D]ople's stuff

In my ho[C]use we see by Ch[Em/G]ristmas lights and your [Am]TV, and that se[D]ems to beenough

[D]To see w[C]hat we want to s[Dsus4]ee

You let me [C]be who I want to b[Dsus4]e

And we[C]'ll be ea[Em]sy from [Am]now on, from[D] now on

[C/G]Why can't I be e[Dsus4]asy, why can't I[C/G] be easy like [Dsus4]you?

For y[C]ou I would give the s[Em/G]ongs I write, the w[Am]ords I pray, the m[D]orning light

That p[C]umps into this room[Em/G] today, if you w[Am]ould only rise, if you w[D]ould only say

"[D]I want y[C]ou, you take up all of my t[Dsus4]ime

I want y[C]ou because you're funny and [Dsus4]kind

And we[C]'ll be ea[Em]sy from [Am]now o[D]n, from now on"
