E
Was it you who spoke the words that things would happen but not to me
C#m
Oh things are gonna happen naturally
F#m
Oh taking your advice I'm looking on the bright side
AB
And balancing the whole thing
E
But often times those words get tangled up in lines
C#m
And the bright lights turn to night
F#m
Until the dawn it brings
AB
Another day to sing about the magic that was you and me
EAadd9B
Ha La La La La

B
For those who don't remember me
Aadd9
Well let me introduce you to my style
C#m7
I try to keep a jumble
B
And the lyrics never mumble
Aadd9
When the music's makin' people tongue-tied
C#m7
You want a new song
Like a new religion
B
Music for the television
Aadd9
I can't do the long division
Someone do the math
C#m7B
For the people write me off like I'm a one-hit wonder
Aadd9
Gotta find another way to keep from goin' under
C#m7
Pull out the stops,
B
Got your attention
Aadd9
I guess it's time again for me to mention
The wordplay
F#
Live high
A#m7
Live mighty

Takin it easy

Takin it easy
