[A] [G]
Never been near a university, never took a paper or a learning degree.
Some of you [A] friends think that's stupid of me, but it's nothing that [G] I care about.
[D] Well, [C] I don't [G] know how to turn the weight of the sun, and [C] I've passed all the graphics,
but I want love, and I may be [E] the man in simple time, but I know [D] one thing, and that's [Em] I [G] love you.
When the logic goes out, I'll think of you, son, you'll be holding [Am] me on, no [G] matter how simple time.
[C] [G] I can't help being there when brains were handed around, please be ascending to the man in simple time,
or can you pass the cover of your book somehow, please be ascending to the man in simple time.
Some of you [A] friends look at me unsound, but you're reversing [E] talking to me.
Well, I [D] don't know [G] how to write a big-hit [C] song, it'll [D] cross word [G] puzzles, but I just can't,
and I may be [E] the man in simple time, but [C] I know one [D] thing, and that's [G] I love you.
[E] I'm [Bm] not proud of the fact [Em] that I never learned much, [G] just feel I should say,
[Bm] what you get is all real, I can't put on an [B] eraser to that [C] anyway,
[G] and I can unravel rhythm, prop math, forms out of the hole, don't you drag me on the road,
and I may be the [E] man in simple time, but I [C] know [E] one thing, and [G] that's I love you.
Except my feeling is a dark sea, these gaps and people's chances,
that I'm one man through the mud and trees, no jail of office and no home for guessing,
but some of [A] you friends are so crazy, that the [Bm] palm grows from [G] that,
and I may [A] all stay, but I don't [G] know how many miles make up a ton of all the Nobel prizes,
but I've never won, and I may [E] be the man in simple time,
[B] but I know one thing, and that's I [G] love you.
When my logic runs cold and I'm thinking it's done,
you'll be warming [A] me up with a man of simple time.
[G] [C] You'll be warming me [A] up with a man of [G] simple time.
