I do like a simple song
D D7 G *
Where everyone can sing along

It doesn't matter where you're from

Most people like a simple song

Can't seem to ever get enough, yeah

It sure is cool to fall in love

One day you wake up on your own

And when I hit the ground I'm running
[Verse]
D D7 G *
But I don't want to die alone
D D7 G *
Where I cannot reach the phone
D D7 G *
In my multi-story home
D D7 G *
No I don't want to die alone
[Chorus]
C C/B D D7
It's not preyin' on my mind
G * C C C/B
But I do think about it from time to time
C C/B G D D7
And it's not likely to happen soon
G * C C C/B
But you may not even see it coming
[Verse]
D D7 G *
So help me sing this simple song
D D7 G *
Where everyone can sing along
D D7 G *
It doesn't matter where you're from
D D7 G
One day we're here and then we're gone
