Easys Getting Harder Every Day (CHORDS) by Iris DeMent
[Intro]~
G C D/F# G G/A G/B C D/F# G Gsus4 G
[Verse]~
G C D/F# G G/A G/B
Standin' barefoot on a cold wood floor,.. lookin' out the window of my back door
C D/A G D
If it keeps on rainin' I think the whole damn house is gonna float away
G C D/A G
The alarm was buzzin' at the break of dawn,.. my husband's askin',.. "Is the coffee on..?"
G/A G/B C D G Gsus4 G
And easy's gettin' harder every day
[Verse]~
G C D/F# G
I'll drop the baby off at school at nine,.. and bust the lights to get to work on time
G/B C G/B D/A G D
Where I'll be starin' at the clock waitin' to knock off another day
G C G/B D/A G
Supper's done,.. we'll watch some TV show of a bunch of folks who've never heard of Idaho
G/A G/B C D G Gsus4 G
Where easy's gettin' harder every day
[Chorus]~
G G/A G/B C D G C
I had a garden but my flowers died,.. there ain't much livin' here inside
G D
Lately,.. I don't know what I'm hold-in' on to
D/F# D/G D/A G C G/B D/A G
Wished I could run away to Coeur d'Alene,.. take nothing with me,.. not even my name
G/A G/B C D G Gsus4 G
'Cause easy's gettin' harder every day
[Instrumental]~
G C D G C D D/C G/B G
[Verse]~
G C D/F# G
We make love and then we kiss goodnight,.. he rolls over and he's out like a light
G/A G/B C D/A G D
But I ain't mad about it,.. we got nothing to talk a-bout anyway
G C G/B D/A G G/A G/B
The lights are blinkin' on the radio tower,.. and I lie awake and stare at them for hours and hours
C D G Gsus4 G
For easy's gettin' harder every day
[Chorus]~
G G/A G/B C D G C
I had a garden but my flowers died,.. there ain't much livin' here inside
G D
Lately,.. I don't know what I'm hold-in' on to
D/F# D/G D/A G C G/B D/A G G/A
But I'll never make it up to Coeur d'Alene,.. there ain't no chance of me forgetting my name
G/B C D G Gsus4 G
And easy's gettin' harder every day
[Outro]~
G/A G/B C G/B D/A G D G
And it feels like easy,.. just keeps on gettin' harder every day
