Intro: E - H - Cis - A - H - E
VERSE 1:
[E]Simple backbeats seem to soothe me. If i could hold them i would let see,
[A]Take some rest as if not wicked. And walk around enjoying silence.
A w[E]orld away, elders gather. Speaking their tongue and hardly falter.
With wor[A]ds of bound, joy and grievance, Simple songs, work and penance.
PRE-CHORUS
To d[H]rawn hate like a stone,
w[Cis]alk the path overgrown.
Never lie[A] awake,
And so for goo[H]dness sake.
VERSE 2:
[E]Well down the road the deer are crossing, And the grass is greener where they're walking.
[A]Rattling beasts and heavy movements, Mark them now son before we lose them.
[E]Bear your arms ever so wisely, Or burn them all if you have no need.
And dre[A]ss to kill but kill so kindly. A hollow heart's too weak and weary.
PRE-CHORUS
To d[H]rawn hate like a stone,
w[Cis]alk the path overgrown.
Never lie[A] awake,
And so for goo[H]dness sake.
CHORUS:
Now cal[Cis]l me crazy but all the o[A]ld ways,
Of l[E]iving simple are simply[H] fading.
And al[Cis]l we buy is time b[A]efore we die,[E]
lay on dow[H]n desensitized.[E]
VERSE 3:
E (let ring)
A wise old friend recently told me: "An idle mind is the devils playpen".
A (let ring)
Mind the gaps and watch them closely. Spread the love but choose your friends wisely.
[E]Love yourself to love your family, And find the difference between wants and needs.
Be su[A]re to stop and count your blessings, Smell the roses and fight for something.
