Oh, when I was young boy I learned to play the guitar

There ain’t no easy way

[Verse 3]

I found me a woman I gave her heart and soul

C G D7/F#
She gave me a baby child then she took it away
C G/B B7 Em
There ain’t no easy way

[Verse 4]

Well, I prayed to the father to the moon and the sun
Am Em
I prayed to anyone or anything that could get the job done
Am C G D7/F#
I hear different voices but the words are the same
C G/B B7 Em
There ain’t no easy way

[Verse 5]
Em G
I went to this doctor to see what my trouble might be
