[Verse 1](Ska Chords)
DBreak up with my girl and I'm Gtaking it easy
DLost my job and I'm Gtaking it easy
DMy car broke down and I'm Gtaking it easy
DSun is coming down and I'm Gtaking it easy
[Pre Chorus](Ska Chords)
DCause all I want to do is pick Gup my guitar
DI'm going down to have a Gdrink at the bar
DWhen everything comes Gto a stop
DLife gets you down but you Gget back up
[Verse 2](Ska Chords)
DLate for a meeting and I'm Gtaking it easy
DStuck in traffic and I'm Gtaking it easy
DAngry at the police and I'm Gtaking it easy
Getting Dscrewed by the system and it's Gnot getting easy
[Chorus] x2(Power Chords)
DCause every now and Cthen
GThings come toAgether
DCause every once in a Cwhile
GWe get it Aright!
