IntroGCDGGGCDG G4 GVerseGCDGGG
Standin' barefoot on a cold wood floor, lookin' out the window of my back door
CDGD
If it keeps on rainin' I think the whole damn house is gonna float away
GCDG
The alarm was buzzin' at the break of dawn, my husband's askin', "Is the coffee on?"
GGCDG G4 G
And easy's gettin' harder every day
VerseGCDG
I'll drop the baby off at school at nine, and bust the lights to get to work on time
GCGDGD
Where I'll be starin' at the clock waitin' to knock off another day
GCGDG
Supper's done, we'll watch some TV show of a bunch of folks who've never heard of Idaho
GGCDG G4 G
Where easy's gettin' harder every day
ChorusGGGCDGC
I had a garden but my flowers died, there ain't much livin' here inside
GD
Lately, I don't know what I'm hold-in' on to
DDDGCGDG
Wished I could run away to Coeur d'Alene, take nothing with me, not even my name
GGCDG G4 G
'Cause easy's gettin' harder every day
InstrumentalGCDGCDDGGVerseGCDG
We make love and then we kiss goodnight, he rolls over and he's out like a light
GGCDGD
But I ain't mad about it, we got nothing to talk a-bout anyway
GCGDGGG
The lights are blinkin' on the radio tower, and I lie awake and stare at them for hours and hours
CDG G4 G
For easy's gettin' harder every day
ChorusGGGCDGC
I had a garden but my flowers died, there ain't much livin' here inside
GD
Lately, I don't know what I'm hold-in' on to
DDDGCGDGG
But I'll never make it up to Coeur d'Alene, there ain't no chance of me forgetting my name
GCDG G4 G
And easy's gettin' harder every day
OutroGGCGDGDG
And it feels like easy, just keeps on gettin' harder every day
