Baby Be Simple

	  		
Intro: C  Am  F 

 

Verse 
C    Am  F   
In and out 
               C  
That's the way in 
Am            F 
I saw an old sign 
                      C 
When my world was way down 
    Fm            Am 
Quiet on the streets 
                   C 
So I climbed the stairs 
        F       Am 
To the rarified air 
               C 
I've been on fire 
     Am           F 
Made from my thoughts 
                   C 
I thought up my life by 

verse 2 
C        Am    F 
Out then back in 
                    C 
That's the way to begin 
        Fm           Am 
But I had to climb down 
        C 
Into today 
                  Am        
And give up the pain 
                  C 
I held myself up by 


F             Am   C 
Baby, be simple  
F             Am    
Baby, be simple,  
        C 
Be simple 
        G                
Be simple with me
 

verse 3 
C        Am    F 
Out, thicker skin 
                   C 
That's no way to begin 
        Am           F 
Come with your true arc 
                      C 
To fall all the way down 
     Fm      Am 
Like an empire 
                   C 
Into a kingdom of guts 
      F          Am 
To become a rooftop 
                       E 
I built me from the bedrock 
 C#m          A 
Made me right up 
              E 
Ignited little tunes 
  C#m              A  
While the wind was still 
                           E 
Trying to find a way to tell you 
    C#m               A 
If or not the true arc 
            E 
Is even there 
       C#m         A  
Or on a pillow of air 
                         E 
I'll rip me apart by the lore 
           C#m          A 
Cause to become that rooftop 
                            B 
I had to fall all the way down 

A        E 
Baby, be simple  
A     Am               C#m  
Baaaaaby, please be simple 
      E 
Be simple 
  B 
Be simple with me
