Chords for Lucky Dube - It is Not Easy - Live!

_ _ _ [E] _ _ I [F#] know we don't play this [G#m] one for lovers only
[E] _ _ [B] and if [E] you've got somebody that you love so much [F#] next to you
_ [G#m] _
[E] please, _ [B] _ hold them closer to you
but you know when they say [G#m] sometimes they say
[B] love is a loaded gun
[E] _ with that I [B] think a lot of [F#] people relate [G#m] easily to this one
[E] from the [B] album House of [E] Exile
this is a song [F#] called

_ Some [E] of the stuff I like, [D#m] don't you think [E] that
[B] It's so cold, so cold

[B] _ I _ _ _ _ _ remember _ the days
I [E] found my lost soul
I told [F#] her I'm not alone
_ I'm not [B] prepared
_ _ _ _ _ I could hear your voice on the other side of [E] that telephone
She was smiling [F#] and she asked me a question
that I [B] probably had said
_ She _ _ said, Sam, _ did you [E] take after all her
I [F#] said, my mama, _ _ _ [B] she's the best
_ _ _ But today, it hurts me still
She [E] goes back to mama and says
Mama, _
[F#] _ I'm getting old _ _
[B] I'm getting _ old
_ [F#] _
_ It's [E] just like me _
[F#] _ _ Even when [E] I'm the way I look
[F#] _ It's [E] just like me
[B] _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
[F#] _ It's [E] just like me
[F#] _ Even when [E] I'm the way I look
[F#] _ _ It's [E] just like me _ _
[B] _ _ _ It's just like me
It's not _ easy
_ To [E] understand it
_ _ But I hope [F#] you're _ _ _ _ looking [B] back at your past _ _ _ _
It's not _ easy
_ _ To [E] understand it
_ _ But I hope you're [F#] making it
_ To understand [B] it
_ _ It's _ not _ easy _ _ _ _
_ [E] _ _ _ _ But I hope you're making _ _ it
To understand [B] it
I _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ remember in church
_ [E] _ When the bridge of my brother's church
[F#] _ You looked so beautiful
[B] So beautiful, it's not easy _ _ _ _
_ _ I did not know that _
[E] Behind that beauty
_ Lies the true [F#] colors
That will restore me
To the [B] depth of your love _ _ _ _
[F#] _ _ It's [E] just like [F#] me
_ Even [E] when I'm the way I look
[F#] _ It's just [E] like me _
[B] _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _

[B] _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ It's just like me
I remember when I held your body [E] in
_ Written in horrendous scriptures
[F#] Through the _ world
_ In your [B] _ _ mouth _ _ _ _
_ Maybe what that bridge of his said
[E] _ Was not something that was within you
[F#] _ Now I know what they mean when [B] they say _ _ _ _ _ _
_ Beautiful _ is an _
[E] unimaginable thing _ _ _ _
[F#] _ _ _ _ _ I'm hurt [B] you _ now _ _ _ _
[F#] _ It's [E] just like me _
[F#] _ Even [E] when I'm the way I look
[F#] _ It's [E] just like me _
[B] _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ Mama _ _ _ _
_ It's just [E] like me _
[F#] _ Even [E] when I'm the way I [F#] look
_ It's just [E] like me _
[B] _ _ Mama said to me
It's just like me
_ Even when I'm [E] the way I look
_ _ It's just [F#] like me
_ You remember [B] _
your name _ _ _ _ _
