Simple Song Tab

by 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.

Simple Song - Lyle Lovett

                         
It's a simple song for simple feelings
                             
You see the moon and you watch it rise
                                
Across the continent a night bird sings
                          
And someone somewhere hears its cry

                    
Disillusioned, keep your head down
                          
'Cause if you do they'll never know
                               
You'll have no answers to their questions
                        
And they will have to let you go

                
Disenfranchised revolution
                     
Take away by right what's yours
                            
They make you martyrs of your own cause
                              
But they don't know what cause its for

                
All deserted stand alerted
                              
They'll love you when you're all alone
                          
You find a red rose in the morning light
                          
But wait the night and find it gone

                           
So hear my words with faith and passion
                    
For what I say to you is true
                         
When you find the one you might become
                 
Remember part of me is you
