Simple Man Lyrics

Tabber: clark@theoddmenout.com
Verse 1:
I see lives crash like waves on the shore again and again
In endless cycle of joy and pain
Inside one day your whole life can change, innocence torn away
Trust gives gives way to a thicker skin
Verse 2:
A shield from the pain? Or a trap that keeps it all in?
They tries to break me down I had to break away
I woke up from that nightmare to start another day...
Chorus:
E B A A/G#,A,A/G# E,B,A,A/G#,A,A/G#
Whoo-ooo-ooooh
(Repeat)

I wanna be a simple man, with a little peace of mind

Live a simple life in a place that's kind
(Repeat)
Verse 3:
I see lives crash like waves on the shore again and again
In an endless cycle of joy and pain
NO POETRY, NO SYMMETRY, nothing left inside of me
What happened to that feeling of invincability
Verse 4:
Broken up- Caught under the load
Broken down- By the side of the road
They tried to break me down I had to break away
I woke up from that nightmare to start another day...
