Now I’m Easy Eric Bogle CAPO 3
For D nearly sixty D7 years I've been a G cocky
Through D drought, fire and flood I've lived through A plenty,
This D country's dust and D7 mud, have G seen my tears and D blood,
But it’s nearly over A now, and now I’m G easy.
I D married a fine young D7 girl when I was G twenty,
But she D died in giving birth when she was A thirty,
No D flying doctors D7 then, just a G gentle old black D gin,
But it’s nearly over A now, and now I’m G easy.
She D left me with two D7 sons and a G daughter,
On a bone dry farm whose D soil cried out for A water,
Though my D care was rough and D7 ready,
They G grew up fine and D steady,
But it’s nearly over A now, and now I’m G easy.
My D daughter married D7 young and went her G own way,
My D sons lay buried by the Burma A railway
In this D land I've made me D7 own, I've G carried on D alone,
But it’s nearly over A now, and now I’m G easy.
City D folks these D7 days despise the G cocky,
Say with subsidies and D all we’ve had it A easy,
But there’s no D drought, no starving D7 stock on your G sewered suburban D blocks.
But it’s nearly over A now, and now I’m G easy.
For D nearly sixty D7 years I've been a G cocky
Through D drought, fire and flood I've lived through A plenty,
This D country's dust and D7 mud, have G seen my tears and D blood,
But it’s nearly over A now, and now I’m G easy.
