Capo +5
Intro:  C   G  F* D/F#  
                C                    G  F*       D/F#  
  It's easier to fall and harder to stand

  It's easier to cry and harder to laugh,

  And I don't know how, I don't know why
                    C       G         Am         Em  F*
But you're the light on my shoulder when I'm tired
                C                      G  F*     D/F#  
  It's easier to run and harder to be still
                C                      G  F*     D/F#  
  It's easier to think and harder to feel,
                     C                    G  F*  D/F#  
  And I don't know how, I don't know why

                C                    G  F*       D/F#  
  It's easier to hate and harder to love
                     C                  G  F*    D/F#
