Now I'm Easy chords by Eric Bogle

Chords with lyrics

D MajorD      D7D7         G+G    *
For nearly sixty years, I've been a cocky

  D MajorD           *             A7A7    *
Of droughts and fires and floods, I've lived through plenty

     D MajorD         D7D7    G+G         D MajorD
Yes, this country's dust and mud, has seen my tears and blood

     *      A7A7        G+G  D MajorD
But it's nearly over now, and now I'm easy___


 D MajorD       D7D7       G+G    *
I married a fine girl when I was twenty

    D MajorD       *         A7A7    *
But she died in giving birth when she was thirty

  D MajorD       D7D7      G+G        D MajorD
No Flying Doctor then, just a gentle old black gin

     *      A7A7        G+G  D MajorD
But it's nearly over now, and now I'm easy___

  D MajorD        D7D7     G+G     *
She left me with two sons and a daughter

   D MajorD          *         A7A7   *
And a bone-dry farm whose soil cried out for water

   D MajorD         D7D7       G+G        D MajorD
So my care was rough and ready, but they grew up fine and steady

     *      A7A7        G+G  D MajorD
But it's nearly over now, and now I'm easy___


  D MajorD        D7D7         G+G     *
My daughter married young, and went her own way

  D MajorD        *      A7A7    *
My sons lie buried by the Burma Railway

      D MajorD         D7D7    G+G      D MajorD
So on this land I've made my own, I've carried on a-lone

     *      A7A7        G+G  D MajorD
But it's nearly over now, and now I'm easy___
