Berikut ini lirik dan chord lagu “It Was So Easy” dari Carly Simon:
C
I remember a time
F
Rompin' through the woods
G C
Sun against our skin instead of clothes
When we felt hungry we would eat
F
When we felt glad we would dance
G C
And whenever we felt drowsy we would doze
F
It was so easy then
Bb
Never takin' any stands
F
It was so easy then
G
Holdin' hands
C
I remember a time
F
When our fears could be named
G C
And courage meant not refusing dares
F
I remember when we took such cares to step never on the cracks
No only on the squares
G
Or else we'd be abducted by the bears
F
It was so easy then
Bb
Never makin' any plans
F
It was so easy then
G
Holdin' hands
F
It was so easy then
Bb
Never makin' any plans
F
It was so easy then
G
Holdin' hands
C
And now we are grown
F
With debts and regrets
G
And broken hearts
C
And sentimental schemes
Now every tender failure
F
Seems to overthrow old dreams
G C
Love can drive a normal woman to extremes
F
It was so easy then
Bb
Never takin' any stands
F
It was so easy then
G
Holdin' hands
It was so easy then
C G C
Holdin' hands
