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.
Simple Song - Lyle Lovett
Amin C G
It's a simple song for simple feelings
Amin C E7
You see the moon and you watch it rise
F C G
Across the continent a night bird sings
Amin E7 Amin
And someone somewhere hears its cry
Amin C G
Disillusioned, keep your head down
Amin C E7
'Cause if you do they'll never know
F C G
You'll have no answers to their questions
Amin E7 Amin
And they will have to let you go
Amin C G
Disenfranchised revolution
Amin C E7
Take away by right what's yours
F C G
They make you martyrs of your own cause
Amin E7 Amin
But they don't know what cause its for
Amin C G
All deserted stand alerted
Amin C E7
They'll love you when you're all alone
F C G
You find a red rose in the morning light
Amin E7 Amin
But wait the night and find it gone
Amin C G
So hear my words with faith and passion
Amin C E7
For what I say to you is true
F C G
When you find the one you might become
Amin E7 Amin
Remember part of me is you
