My way was the hard way, didn't know it at the time
Am7/D                                   Gmaj7
I could've had it made by now, but I was too busy tryin'
Dmaj9
Your way was so easy, thank God you came along
Am7/D                             Gmaj7
You took me to a special place where nothin' can go wrong

Dmaj9
Easy on Easy Street,

You're the one who gave me love and made my life complete

Easy on Easy Street,
Am7/D                                   Gmaj7
the dream I pictured in my heart could never be this sweet.

It really doesn't matter 'cause I know I'll love my part.
