Go Down Easy

C
Linda lost her lover in the early part of autumn
        F
And she moved out to the country hoping all would be forgotten
    C
The last time that I saw her she was making sure the winter
         Am
Wouldn't come through that old door frame
          F                               C           G         F
Where the door is several inches from the ground, the cold hard ground


CHORUS:
         G               F
And it's hard to go down easy
         G                 F
And it's hard to keep from crying
         G              F
And it's hard to lose a lover
                     C     G     F     C  Bb  C  Bb F
In the early part of au-au-au-au-tumn


          C
Well, she learned to cook the meals and she learned to start the fire
        F
And she learned to make jewellery out of stones and precious metals
    C
She sits down to the table with her friends and several others
        Am                           F
And she tries real hard to never be alone


CHORUS:
         G               F
And it's hard to go down easy
         G                 F
And it's hard to keep from crying
         G              F
And it's hard to lose a lover
                     C     G     F     C  Bb  C  Bb F C  Bb  C  Bb F
In the early part of au-au-au-au-tumn


        C
Now the winter wind blows cold upon a fair and gentle soul
        F                                 C
And she feels as if her time is a-passing easy
    Am                                            F
Her friends are sometimes lovers, though there'll always be another
    C                 G                  F
She thinks about when night time lays on down


CHORUS:
         G               F
And it's hard to go down easy
         G                 F
And it's hard to keep from crying
         G              F
And it's hard to lose a lover
                     C     G     F
In the early part of au-au-au-au-tumn
         G               F
And it's hard to go down easy
         G                 F
And it's hard to keep from crying
         G              F
And it's hard to lose a lover
