This is tablature — fret positions rather than chord names. Wide lines scroll sideways on their own, so the page never does.

Verse:

Why should I worry

That you might not love me

G

You're not the only love

D

That I've ever had

F#m

Your sweet memory

Bm

Will always comfort me

G A

So why should I be feeling sad

As far as I can tell

You knew so well

I was always

At the end of the line

I've loved you as much

As any man can

But not enough

To make you mine

So long, easy rider

I know that I'll forget you

And I tell you babe

Come on and free me

Why won't you free me

Free me from your spell

Why won't you free me

Come on and free me

Free me from your spell

Verse:

We let a good love die

We let it pass us by

Though you tried to

Keep me hangin' on

But with all this doubt

It'll never work out

So tomorrow I'll be travellin' on

And saying:

Bridge:

So long, easy rider

I know I'll miss you for awhile

But sooner or later

I know that I'll forget you

And I beg it babe

Chorus:

Free me

Come on and free me

Why won't you free me

Free me from your spell

Come on and free me

I'm on my knees, babe

Free me

Why won't you free me

Free me from your spell

Oh babe, come on

Come on and free me

Why won't you free me

Free me from this spell
