[Intro]
I ain't easy, it's fucking hard in here

[Verse 1]
I ain't easy, it's fucking hard in here
My mind keeps thinking, babe
That I'm seeing clear
Can you taste the liquor on my lips?
Smoke lingers through my fingertips

[Pre-Chorus]
I get up, get down, I don't fight no more
Just flipping through the pages of my life

[Chorus]
Sooner or later gonna catch me, son, yeah
Sooner or later gonna catch me, son
I hope you let me down easy
I hope you let me down easy
I hope you let me down easy
I hope you let me down

[Post-Chorus]
Time fliеs they say I chose, you're right
I chosе to stray, hope you let me down easy

[Verse 2]
I ain't lyin'
Hand to God the truth
My heads a-spinnin' in circles, babe
I think I've come unglued
I can taste the liquor on your lips
Got double vision from your kiss

[Pre-Chorus]
I get up, I get down, I don't fight no more
Can't find the missing pages from my life

[Chorus]
Sooner or later gonna catch me, son, yeah
Sooner or later gonna catch me, son
I hope you let me down easy
I hope you let me down easy
I hope you let me down easy
I hope you let me down

[Post-Chorus]
Time flies they say, I chose, you're right
I chose to stray, hope you let me down

[Bridge]
I wanna make it, I wanna make it
I wanna make it, don't you let me down, no, no
I wanna make it, I wanna make it
I wanna make it, don't you let me down, no, no

[Post-Bridge]
Sooner or later gonna catch me, son
Sooner or later gonna catch me, son
Sooner or later gonna catch me, son
Sooner or later gonna catch me, son

[Chorus]
I hope you let me down easy
I hope you let me down easy
I hope you let me down easy
I hope you let me down

[Post-Chorus]
Time flies they say, I chose, you're right
I chose to stray, I hope you're right
Time flies they say, I chose, you're right
Time flies they say, I hope you let me down easy

Candlebox

A very underrated band from Seattle, but was a little late to the grunge scene. Success wasn’t easy for them as all of the bands at that time in Seattle were growing and getting huge, most said they would get ignored. The group formed in 1990 and released their first studio album in 1993 self-titled.
