Easier That Way

[Verse 1]
          D                      
I've been thinking of the words I 
                        G
used to say when I was drinking
Seems like it's only yesterday when 
  D
I was heartache
I didn't mean to treat you bad, but 
      G
I was suffering from self-pity that 
I had
          Em          A
And I was tired and I couldn't stand
 the pain
               G                 A
I couldn't put that bottle down
                     D          G
'Cause it was easier that way


[Verse 2]
             D
Now, I don't wanna be the same man I
 was back then
               G
'Cause I don't understand all those 
selfish little plans
                        Em
And when I look into my father’s 
eyes

        A                          
I see a torn and desperate man who 
              G                 A
couldn't put that bottle down
                     D          G
'Cause it was easier that way
                     D
'Cause it was easier that way


[Chorus]
             G                     
I guess it's torture singing songs 
          A
about the man I used to be
         G                         
I wonder if you sometimes see that 
  A
man inside of me
      D
But I promise, I won't go back to 
way back then
             G
'Cause I got tired of that selfish 
little man
        Em           A      
But I'm trying and I hope you 
                               G
understand that it's hard to put 
                      A
that bottle down
                D          G
But it's easier that way
                D          G
But it's easier that way

But I'm trying and I hope you 
understand that it's hard to put 
 G                   A
that bottle down
                D          G
But it's easier that way
                D          G
But it's easier that way
          A                D
But it's easier that way
