Got to pay your dues if you want to sing the blues

C D

You can even play them easy

F G

Forget about the past and all your sorrow

The future won't last

It will soon by your tomorrow

I don't ask for much

I only want trust

And you know it don't come easy

And this love of mine keeps growing all the time

And you know it just ain't easy

Open up your heart

Let's come together

Use a little luck

And we will make it work out better

Got to pay your dues if you want to sing the blues

And you know it don't come easy

You don't have to shout or leap about

You can even play them easy

Please remember peace is how we make it

Here within your reach

If you're big enough to take it

I don't ask for much

I only want trust

And you know it don't come easy

And this love of mine keeps growing all the time

And you know it don't come easy
