It's difficult, it's very [C] tough, [Em]
I said to the man who'd been sleeping rough,
to sit within a [Am] fragrant breeze, [C] all among the knotting [D] tree, that hanged heavy with
[Em] early snow.
He threw his arms around my knee, brushed the teeth from my cheek, and held my
soft [Am] white hair.
[C] He was an understanding [D] man, and he did not even barely [Em] hardly speak.
[D] Easy money.
[C] Rainy town, the wife and the kids, [D] rainy town on the house where [Em] we live, rainy, got nothing
left to [C] give, and rainy, [D] that ever loved, been stuck [Em] down on me.
[Am] [D] [C]
[Em]
All the things for which my heart yearned,
gives joy in diminishing return.
Kiss me on the mouth, [C] his hands they had it so, [D] and my cheek [Em] it burned.
Money man it is a bitch, thought they'd spoil it for the rich, first present clover,
[C] I wondered when this would be over,
[D] and at home we are all so [Em] guilty, say, [D] easy money.
[C] Pour it down, ye open drain, [D] pour it over through my [Em] veins, pour it down, ye let it [C] rain, and pour that [D] ever loving
stuff [Em] down on me.

Now I'm sitting pretty down on the bed, life shuffles past at a low interest rate,
in a money colored meadow, [C] and all the interesting [D] shadows, they lead up and [Em] disappear.
[C] [Em] Easy [D] money. Easy [Em] money.
