Lyrics

[Intro]
[steel-string acoustic guitar strumming with percussive mutes and hammer-on fills]
[Verse 1]
[baritone male vocals enter]
Woke up this morning
Put the coffee on
But I knew what the day would bring
Memories of her and yesterday
Oh, what a fool I've been
I thought I'd be better off without her now
But at nighttime I lie by myself
Taste of freedom I felt at first
Oh, now it feels like a cold, cold jail cell
[Chorus]
[guitar strumming intensifies]
So take it easy now, take it easy now
When you see me out on the street
Take it easy now, take it easy now
'Cause that's a blind, blind fool that you meet
[Instrumental Break]
[acoustic guitar solo with bluesy slides and double-stops]
[Verse 2]
I used to go out late at night
Know I would sparkle and I'd shine
But when I think about what I've lost
Only a darkness is mine
I thought I'd be better off without her now
But at nighttime I lie by myself
A taste of freedom I felt at first
Now it feels like a cold, cold, cold jail cell
[Chorus]
So take it easy now, take it easy
When you see me out on that street
Take it easy now, take it easy now
'Cause that's a blind, blind fool that you meet
(Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
That's a blind fool that you meet
(Whoa, yeah)
[Outro]
[guitar fades out with final strum]
