[E]
Standing in the darkest of Hamptons, trying to get to Holland or France.
The man in the match said, you've got to go back, you know they didn't even give us a
chance, Christ you know [A] it ain't easy.
You know how hard [E] it can be, the way things are [Eb] going.
[B]
They're going [Gb] to [E] crucify me.
Finally made the plane into Paris, early morning down by the Seine.
Peter Brown called to say, you can make it okay, you can get married in Gibraltar near
Spain, Christ you know it [A] ain't easy.
You know how hard it [E] can be, the way things [B] are going.
They're going to [E] crucify me.
Rode from Paris to the Amsterdam Hilton, talking in our beds for a week.
The news people said, say what you're doing in bed, I said we're only trying to get us
some peace, Christ you know [A] it ain't easy.
You know how hard [E] it can be, the way [B] things are going.
They're going to [Gbm] crucify [E] me.
[A] Saving up your money for a rainy day, giving all your clothes to charity.
Last night the wife said, oh boy when you're [B] dead you don't take nothing with you cause
you're so [E] sick.
Made a light trip to Vienna, eating chocolate cake in a bag.
Weepers said, she's gone through his head, they look just like two gurus in black and
white, you know [A] it ain't easy.
You know how hard [D] it can [E] be, the way [Abm] things are going.
[B]
[Eb] They're going to [E] crucify me.
Caught the early plane back to London, 58 comes right in sight.
Men from the press said, we wish you success, it's good to have the vote of you back, Christ
you know it ain't [A] easy.
You know how hard [E] it can be, the way [B] things are going.
They're going to [E] crucify me.
The way things [B] are going.
They're going to crucify [E] me.
