Biography:
Inspired by a vast variety of artists, from Brian Wilson to Stevie Wonder, singer/songwriter/pianist Matt Simons pushes himself to grow beyond those influences to find his own voice and create his own sound. Often compared to Jamie Cullum, John Mayer and Adam Levine, Simons also infuses his piano based pop-rock with hints of jazz and R&B.
Much of 2011 was spent on tour. In addition to visiting most of the US, he ventured to the UK, Netherlands and Germany in support of his 2010 release, the EP Living Proof.

[Intro]
Cadd9, G, D 2x
[Verse]
Cadd9
The moment we meet
G D
Notice the sparks start to fly
Cadd9
Turn into heat
G D
It's gonna get cute you and I
Cadd9
Comes time to leave
G D F
Unaware hours gone by
C D C F
Done the best to stay
C D
Out of my own way
Cadd9
Starts with a phone call
G D
Sided with caution, three day wait
Cadd9
Certain we'll soon fall
G D
Not gonna leave this up to fate
Cadd9
Picture together
G D F
All of my problems you erase
C D C F
I don't hear a peep
C D
Guess I'll get some sleep
[Chorus]
Cadd9 G D
Every time I drop, into pieces over nothing
Cadd9 G D
At the top, with belief that was something
Cadd9 G D
But its not, lie awake and I am wasting time
F C D C-F C D
Lying to my mind, lying to my mind
[Verse]
Cadd9
The very next weekend
G D
My call finally gets returned
Cadd9
My will has been weakened
G D
You'd think that by now I'd have learned
Cadd9
She says we can be friends
G D
Bringing about my concern
F C D
Never had control
C-F C D
Back to feeling low
[Chorus]
Cadd9 G D
Everytime I drop, into pieces over nothing
Cadd9 G D
At the top, with belief that was something
Cadd9 G D
But its not, lie awake and I am wasting time
F C D C F C D
Lying to my mind, lying to my mind
[Bridge]
Am
There is a so fine line
Em
Built to give way by design
F#m7b5 B7 Em
You walk at your own risk
D G Cmaj7
of being left out in cold
Bm (Bb)
Or so I've been told
Am Dsus
Guess I haven't been told, oh no
Chorus]
Cadd9 G D
Everytime I drop, into pieces over nothing

Lying to my mind, lying to my mind
