It don't come easy 
You know it don't come easy 
It don't come easy 
You know it don't come easy 

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 
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
