Easy Street Chords

(ver. 1)
Richard Shindell
INTRO: C   F C Dm F C G   C

        F        C
We never say goodbye
                     G     C
And I never make you cry
               F      C
Arm in arm and eye to eye
                      G    F
We watch the years go by
            C         G    Am     G-F
You say goodnight and go upstairs
           C         G           F
As I drift off in my easy chair
         C         G             Am-G-F
I know exactly how it ought to be
        C        G          
You and I keeping company


CHORUS:
       C     F       C
Down on easy street
        G      F ~     G
Never a doubt, never a care
       C     F       Dm   F C G    C
Down on easy street


                    F          C
Our sins are all forgiven here
                      G             C
We thank god just for being there
                    F      C
For laying nature's bounty bare
                        G               F
When we pushed back the wild frontier
              C        G      Am   G-F
Though we are saved by grace alone
           C         G         F
Still we regret that episode
             C   G           Am    G-F
When Spanish gold and Indian bones
            C           G          
Were buried under these cobblestones


CHORUS:
       C     F       C
Down on easy street
        G      F ~     G
Never a doubt, never a care
       C     F       Dm   F C G    C
Down on easy street


         F          C
You never told that lie
                   G             C
That I could never let slip by
                  F        C
You never tried so hard to hide
                      G            F
What I never saw with my own eyes
         C          G            Am   G-F
We never watched our first blush fade
            C       G             F
From summer glow to winter shade
         C         G        Am   G
We never looked for greener days
    F       C           G         
And I never wonder if I should've stayed


CHORUS:
       C     F       C
Down on easy street
        G      F ~     G
Never a doubt, never a care
       C     F       C
Down on easy street
        G      F ~     G
Never a doubt, never a care
       C     F       Dm   F C G F C
Down on easy street
