[Opening]
There ain’t [C]no gold in this [Am]river,
That I’ve been [Em]washing my hands in for[F]ever,
I know [G]there [C]is hope in these [Am]waters.
But I can’t [Em]bring myself to swim,
When [F]I am drowning in this silence. Baby, let me [F]in…

[chorus]
Go [C]easy [Am] [G]on me, baby. [Em]I was [Am]still a child.
[C]Didn’t [F]get the chance to [C]feel [Am]the [G]world around me.
[Em]I had no [Am]time to choose, [C]what I [F]chose to do.
So go [C]easy on me… [Am] [Em] [F]

[section 2]
[G]There ain’t [C]no room, for things to [Am]change.
When we are [Em]both so deeply, stuck in [F]our ways.
[G]You can’t [C]deny, how hard [Am]I have tried.
I changed [Em]who I was, to put you [F]both first. But now I give [F]up…

[chorus]
Go [C]easy [Am] [G]on me, baby. [Em]I was [Am]still a child.
[C]Didn’t [F]get the chance to [C]feel [Am]the [G]world around me.
[Em]I had no [Am]time to choose, [C]what I [F]chose to do.
So go [C]easy [Am] [Em]on [F]me…

[Closing]
[C]I had good inten[Am]tions, and the [Em]highest hopes
But I know right [F]now, it probably doesn’t even [F]show

[chorus]
Go [C]easy [Am] [G]on me, baby. [Em]I was [Am]still a child.
[C]Didn’t [F]get the chance to [C]feel [Am]the [G]world around me.
[Em]I had no [Am]time to choose, [C]what I [F]chose to do.
So go [C]easy on me… [Am] [Em] [F]
