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.

C Am Em
C Am Em
[Verse 1]
C
There's a place I go to
Am
where no one knows me
Em
It's not lonely
C
It's a necessary thing
It's a place I made up
Am
Find out what I'm made of
Em
The nights I stayed up
C
counting stars and fighting sleep
[Pre-Chorus]
C Dm
Let it wash over me
Em
Ready to lose my feet
F C
Take me on to the place where one reveals life's mystery
Dm
Steady on down the line
Em
Lose every sense of time
F
Take it all in and wake up that small part of me
Day to day I'm blind to see
And find how far
C
to go
[Chorus]
C Am
Everybody got their reason
Em
Everybody got their way
F
We're just catching and releasing
C
what builds up throughout the day
Am
It gets into your body
Em
And it flows right through your blood
F
We can tell eachother secrets
C
and remember how to love

[Verse 2]
C
There's a place I'm going
Am
no one knows me
Em
If I breathe real slowly
let it out and let it in
C
It can be terrifying
Am
to be slowly dying
Em
Also clarifying
C
we end where we begin
[Pre-Chorus]
C Dm
Let it wash over me
Em
Ready to lose my feet

Take me on to the place where one reveals life's mystery
