Won't you listen to my story I gotta a tale to tell it's
Am B7
About a man who gets caught somewhere between heaven and hell
Am C G D
Yea the man's in anguish I guess you could say
C C/B C/A C/G Em Em A G Em
There ain't no easy way
Em G
Well when I was young boy I learned to play the guitar
Em B7
It was me and old Jim Beam down at the local bar
Am C G D
Yea I lost my childhood but I earned me a trade
C C/B C/A C/G Em
Now there ain't no easy way
Em G
I found me a woman I gave her heart and soul
Em B7
I nearly lost my mind thru it all yeah she took control
Am C G D
She gave me a baby child then she took it away
C C/B C/A C/G Em
There ain't no easy way
Am Em
I prayed to the father to the moon and the sun
Am Em
I prayed to anyone or anything that could get the job done
Am Em D
I hear different voices but the words are the same
C C/B C/A C/G B7
There ain't no easy way
Em G
I went to this doctor to see what my trouble might be
Em B7
And I was looking at the bottom of his shoe while he was looking at me
Am C G B7
We sat there in silence but what I wanted to say
Em
I wanted to say
SOLO
Em G
When it's all over and my grave you stand
Em
Try to think of something good to say
B7
About this no good man
Am C G D
Please do me a favor won't you write on my grave
C C/B C/A C/G Em
There ain't no easy way
