SCORN NOT HIS SIMPLICITY - PHIL COULTER
[C]See the child, with the golden hair but[Dm] eyes that show the emptyness inside
[G]Do we know, can we understand just[C] how he feels or have we really tried
[C]See him now, as he stands alone and[Dm] watches children play a children's game
[G]Simple child, he looks almost like the[C] others yet they know he's not the same
[Am]Scorn not[Fm] his simplicity but[C] rather try to love him all the more,
[Am]Scorn not[Fm] his simplicity oh[G] no,oh[G7] no.
[C]See him stare, not recognizing that kind[Dm] face that only yesterday he loved
[G]The loving face, of a mother who cant[C] understand what she's been guilty of
[C]How she cried, tears of happyness the day[Dm] the doctor told her its a boy
[G]Now she cries, tears of helplessness and[C] thinks of all the things he can't enjoy
[Am]Scorn not[Fm] his simplicity but[C] rather try to love him all the more
[Am]Scorn not[Fm] his simplicity oh[G] no,oh[G7] no.
SOLO
[C]Only he, knows how to face the future[Dm] hopefully surrounded by dispair.
[G]He wont ask, for your pity or your[C] sympathy but surly you must care.
[Am]Scorn not[Fm] his simplicity but[C] rather try to love him all the more,
[Am]Scorn not[Fm] his simplicity oh[G] no,oh[G7] no,oh[C] no
