The Dubliners - Now I'm Easy chords
Start Jamming...
[E] [D] [A]
For nearly 60 years I've [D] been a cocky
Of [A] droughts and fires and floods I've [E] lived through plenty
[Bm]
[A] This country's dust and mud
[D] Have seen my [A] tears and blood
But it's nearly [E] over now
And [D] now I'm easy
[A]
I married a fine girl when [D] I was 20
She [A] died in giving birth when she [E] was 30
[Em]
[A] No flying doctor then
[D] Just a gentle old [A] black jinn
But it's nearly [E] over now
And [D] now I'm easy
[A]
She left me with two sons [D] and a daughter
And [A] a bone dry farm whose soil cried out [E] for water
[D]
[A] Though me care was rough and errandy
[D] They grew up [A] fine and steady
But it's nearly over [E] now
And [D] now I'm easy
[A]
Me daughter married young and went [D] her own way
[A] Me sons lie buried by the [E] Burma railway
[G]
[A] On this land I've made me home
[D] I've carried [A] on
But it's nearly over [E] now
And [D] now I'm easy
[A]
[D]
[A] [E]
[A] Oh [D] [A]
[E] [D] [A]
city folks, these days [D] despise the coffee
Saying [A] with subsidies and dole we've had [E] it easy
[Em]
But [A] there's no drought or starving stock
[D] On this sore suburban [A] block
But it's nearly [E] over now
And [D] now I'm easy
[A] For nearly 60 years I've [D] been a coffee
Of [A] droughts and fires and floods I've lived [E] through plenty
[Em] This [A] country's dust and mud
[D] Have seen my tears [A] in need
But it's nearly over [E] now
And now [D] I'm easy
[A]
But it's nearly over [E] now
And now I'm [C#m] easy
[A] [N]
