Julie London - Easy Street

      Julie London – Easy Street- 1955

[chorus 1]

A       F#m  D7
Easy Street,
    Em              A      A7    
I'd love to live on Easy Street;
   D7  Em       A    F#m
Nobody works on Easy Street,
D7        Em        A   F#m
Just lie 'round all day,
D7           Bm7       Em
Just sit and play the horses!

[chorus 2]

A       F#m   D7
Life is sweet
     Em               A      A7    
For folks who live on Easy Street;
   D7     Em           A    F#m   
No weekly payments you must meet
D7              Em        A
That makes your hair turn grey!

[bridge 1]

A       A7   D7     D          
When oppor   tun  ity comes knockin',
         D7   Dm           D7  Dm
You just keep on with your rockin',
           A                   A7
'Cause you know your fortune's made!
A      A7  D7        D        D7  D
And if the sun makes you perspire,
          D7       Dm       D7  Dm
There's a man that you can hire
   Bm7    C         Bm7  C        Em     A   Em
To plant trees, so you   can have shade!

[chorus 3]

A       F#m     D7
On Easy Street,
    Em         A        A7        
I'm tellin' every one I meet,
            D7     A    F#m
If I could live on Easy Street,
D7          Em      A        F#m
I wouldn't want no job today,
G  D7     Em  D7   A7
So please go 'way!

A      A7  D7        D        D7  D
And if the sun makes you perspire,
          D7       Dm       D7  D
There's a man that you can hire
   Bm7    C         Bm7  C        Em     A   Em
To plant trees, so you   can have shade!

If I could live on Easy Street,

I wouldn't want no job today,
G  D7     Em  D7   A7
So please go 'way!

If I could live on Easy Street,
