Bm7b5                            Aadd9
It used to be so easy to be your lover

Bm7b5                                         Aadd9
We wandered through the days like they had no end

Bm7b5                          Aadd9
But now that you are gone, I’m undercover

Bm7b5                             Aadd9
I just can’t think about you as a friend
[Chorus 1]
Dadd9                            A
Take it easy on me, it should be easy to see

F#m                                    Eadd9           Esus Eadd9
I’m getting lost in the crowd, hear me crying out loud

Dadd9                    A                     F#m
Just want you to know, I know that you have to go

B                       Bm7b5                             A
It’s all up to you, but whatever you do, take it easy on me
[Verse 2]
Bm7b5                                    Aadd9
So now I’ll go the minstrel road without you

Bm7b5                                         Aadd9
I know there will be times when I’ll need you there

Bm7b5                                      Aadd9
And each night as I sing those songs about you

Bm7b5                                        Aadd9
I’ll think back to the time when you used to care
[Chorus 2]
Dadd9                            A
Take it easy on me, it should be easy to see

F#m                                    Eadd9           Esus Eadd9
I’m getting lost in the crowd, hear me crying out loud

Dadd9                    A                     F#m
Just want you to know, I know that you have to go

B                       Bm7b5                             A
It’s all up to you, but whatever you do, take it easy on me
[Bridge 1]
A               D6sus   D                     A
Take it easy on me, oh baby don’t leave me cryin’

A                 Dsus    D                       A
It should be easy to see, I’ve needed you for so long

Dsus          D                 F                    E                 Esus
Just one more chance, will you, one more chance will you take a chance

E                   
C’mon and take a chance

F#m                                    Eadd9           Esus Eadd9
I’m getting lost in the crowd, hear me crying out loud

Dadd9                    A                     F#m
Just want you to know, I know that you have to go

B                       Bm7b5                             A
It’s all up to you, but whatever you do, take it easy on me
[Outro]
B                             Bm7b5        Asus              A
It’s still up to you, but whatever you do, take it easy on me
