If Love Was Easy

C            F                   
On the floor because the bed was 
C
angry
Am                      G
Rhapsody in technicolor shades
F                            C
You got a way of making me a liar
Am                              G
In spite of my instincts to run away

C                 F               
I wake up feeling seasick but I'm 
C
staying
Am                         G
Outside of you dying for a change
F                                  
Burned my house to embers for this 
C
moment
               F               C
As your shadow swallows all my pain

[Chorus]
F                             C
If love was easy, everybody'd do it
F                                 
If love was easy, you would still 
   G
be here
Am                 G             
Just 'cause it was good once 
    C            F          C
doesn't mean there's nothing to it
C                 F              C
If love was easy, everybody'd do it

[Verse 2]
C             F                  
Couldn't help myself and said "I 
C
love you"
Am                                
You didn't say it back, but that's
     G
 all right
F                                
Sat there in the bathtub getting 
C
wrinkled
Am                            G
Soaking in the silence as the night

C                  F          C
Etched your angles on my hippocampus
Am                             
Where I keep these treasures you 
        G
can't steal
F                                 
There are times remembering you is
   C
 a poison
                   F            
At least the scars remind me you 
      C
were real

[Chorus]
F                             C
If love was easy, everybody'd do it
F                                 
If love was easy, you would still 
   G
be here
Am                 G             
Just 'cause it was good once 
    C            F          C
doesn't mean there's nothing to it
C                 F              C
If love was easy, everybody'd do it


[Bridge]
Am              G         C     
My lock found a key for a while 
         F
or so it seemed
Am         G               C    
Woke up in Valhalla and we 
                 F
brought the gods down to their knees
Am             G             C  
If we couldn't make it last, 
               F              G
well who on earth is playing for 
keeps?


[Chorus]
F                             C
If love was easy, everybody'd do it
F                                 
If love was easy, you would still 
   G
be here
Am                 G             
Just 'cause it was good once 
    C            F          C
doesn't mean there's nothing to it
C                 F              C
If love was easy, everybody'd do it
C                 F              C
If love was easy, everybody'd do it
C                 F              C
If love was easy, everybody'd do it
