Intro One, two, three... | | x2 verse 1 No one knew you back in high school Now you're barely twenty-two You had your whole entire life ahead of you Left town on the Greyhound Cuz there's no love where you grew up They always told you you were never good enough Pre-Chorus But why oh why are you making it Are you making it so hard? Be easy on yourself Be easy on yourself Be easy on yourself Cuz nobody's been easy on you Instrumental | | verse 2 You leave it all behind, you didn't need to travel far You may have lost yourself, but you found yourself a bar Yeah you got some boys, you were an easy choice But you didn't seem to mind You got attention and you didn't care what kind Pre-Chorus But why oh why are you making it Are you making it so hard? Be easy on yourself Be easy on yourself Be easy on yourself Cuz nobody's been easy on you Easy on you Easy on you verse 3 Started selling everything from a corner anywhere You got nothing to lose and you're too young to care Well the men in blue, yeah, they searched you And you knew you were going down You rather die than deal with working it around Post-Chorus But why oh why are you making it Are you making it so hard? Be easy on yourself Be easy on yourself Be easy on yourself Cuz nobody's been easy on you Easy on you Easy on you Instrumental | | Outro Easy on yourself Cuz nobody's been easy on you
