INTRO: [D] [Em7] [A7sus4] : [x2]

VERSE 1:
Well I'm a [D] runnin' down the road tryin' to loosen my load,
I've got seven women [A] on my [G] mind
[D] Four that wanna own me, [A] two that wanna stone me,
[G] One says she's a friend of mine [D]

CHORUS 1:
Take it [Bm] easy; take it [G] ea-[D]-sy
Don't let the [Em] sound of your own [G] wheels drive you [Bm] crazy
Lighten [G] up while you still [D] can, don't even [G] try to under-[D]-stand
Just find a [Em] place to make your [G] stand, and take it [D] easy

VERSE 2:
Well, I'm a [D] standin' on a corner in Winslow, Arizona
Such a fine [A] sight to [G] see
It's a [D] girl my lord in a [A] flat-bed Ford
Slowin' [G] down to take a look at [D] me

CHORUS 2:
Come on, [Bm] baby, don't say [G] may-[D]-be
I gotta [Em] know if your sweet [G] love, is gonna save [Bm] me
We may [G] lose and we may [D] win, though we may [G] never be here [D] again
So open [Em] up I'm climbin' [G] in, so take it [D] easy

INSTRUMENTAL: [over VERSE + 1st half of CHORUS]

VERSE 3:
Well, I'm a [D] runnin' down the road tryin' to loosen my load
Got a world of trouble [A] on my [G] mind
[D] Lookin' for a lover who [A] won't blow my cover,
She's [G] so hard to [D] find

CHORUS 3:
Take it [Bm] easy; take it [G] ea-[D]-sy
Don't let the [Em] sound of your own [G] wheels make you [Bm] crazy
Come on [G] ba-[D]-by, don't say [G] may-[D]-be
I gotta [Em] know of your sweet [G] love, is gonna [D open] save me
