Simple Song Lyle Lovett
This is from memory, so I hope I haven't butchered this one too badly,
particularly the lyrics....As with everything I post this is transposed
into a key I can sing it in, you'll have to change it to do it in the
same key as the recording.
[Am9]It's a simple[C] song for simple[G] feelings
[Am9]You see the m[C]oon and you watch it[E7] rise
[F]Across the con[C]tinent a night bird [G]sings
[Am9]And someone s[E7]omewhere hears its[Am9] cry
[Am9]Disillusion[C]ed, keep your[G] head down
[Am9]'Cause if you[C] do they'll never[E7] know
[F]You'll have no [C]answers to their q[G]uestions
[Am9]And they will [E7]have to let you[Am9] go
[Am9]Disenf[C]ranchised revo[G]lution
[Am9]Take aw[C]ay by right what's[E7] yours
[F]They make you [C]martyrs of your [G]own cause
[Am9]But they don't [E7]know what cause its [Am9]for
[Am9]All de[C]serted stand a[G]lerted
[Am9]They'll love you[C] when you're all a[E7]lone
[F]You find a [C]red rose in the m[G]orning light
[Am9]But wait the[E7] night and find it [Am9]gone
[Am9]So hear my[C] words with faith and[G] passion
[Am9]For what I[C] say to you is[E7] true
[F]When you f[C]ind the one you m[G]ight become
[Am9]Remember [E7]part of me is[Am9] you
