[Verse 1]
[D]Poe[A]ts al[Dm]ways speak o[A]f youth
[Dm]with such admira[A]tion
[Cm]But we all must [Gm]face the truth,
[Cm]age has [Ddim]many a com
pens[G]ation
[Csus4]When I wa[C]s y[Csus4]ounger,[C][F][Gm]
[C]when [F]I w[C]as y[Gm]ounger,[C]
For [F]nightlife I [Gm]used to hun[F]ger,
[F]I s[Csus4]leep easier now.[F]
When I was [C]cuter[Gm],
[C]when I w[F]as [Csus4]cuter,[Gm]
[C]Each nig[F]ht meant ano[Gm]ther sui[Csus4]t or,[F]
[F]I sleep e[Csus4]asier now[F].
In the [A]olden days at [Dm]10 p .m.
[A]I'd be neckin' in a hack,
[Dm]but this eveni[C]ng when it's 10 p [F].m.
you will find me hittin' [A]that sack[C].
When [F]I was snapp[Csus4]ier,
[C]when [F]I was s[Gm]nappier
[C]I m[F]ade lots of b[Gm]oyfriends h[F]appier
but I sleep easier now
[G]I sle[C]ep easier [D]now[F] whe[Dm]n[A]
[D]I w[Ab]as gr[Abm]eener[F#][C#]
when [F#]I was greener[C#] for late
[F#]parties [Abm]I was keen[F#]er.
I [Eb]sleep [Abm]easier [F#]now.
When I was smaller[C#],
when [F#]I was sma[C#]ller,
[F#]I sure enter[C#]tained a [F#]caller.
I [Eb]sleep [Abm]easier [F#]now.
In the [A#aug]olden day[A#]s at 10 [Ebm]p .m.
I'd [Bbaug]be France [Bb]and every p[D#m]lace,
but this [C#]evening when it's [F#]10 p .m.
[Gdim]I'll be putting gr[A]ease on [A#m]my face.[C#]
When [F#]I was ra [C#]cier,
when [F#]I was racie[C#]r,
the night[F#]gowns I [C#]wore were [F#]la cier.
I sleep [C#]easier now,
[A]I s[D#]leep easier now[G#m]
[C#]when[F#] I was[C#][A][D][G][D]
thrilling when I was thrilling
I said [G]no but I was willing
I [D]sleep easier [C]now
[D]when I [G]was [D]hoping
when [G]I w[D]as hoping
I [G]left all [A]the doors wide [G]open
I [D]sleep easier now
[G]in the [F#]olden days [B]at 10 p .m.
I was [F#]giddy [Bsus4]an d so gay.[E]
I [D]looked forward to an [G]unpremeditated
[A#]role in [D]the hay.
When [G]I w[D]as voluptuous -er,
when [G]I w[D]as voluptuous -er,
the boyfriend[G]s I h[D]ad were lustie[G]r.
I sleep [G]easi[Am]er now.
[E]Oh, I s[Am]leep [D]easier now.[F#]
