Simple Man Chords by Timothy B. Schmit

[Dm] _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
I'm a simple man and I'm on my way to whatever lies ahead while [Am] aging day by [C] day
And [Dm] I don't know where I'll be next or if I'll be at all
[Gm] I'm not privy [C] to life's [D] protocol
[Dm] And _ _ _ _ _ I'm not [D] seeking gold, I don't look [Dm] for fame
That's all in my past [Am] now, it's another game
Though [D] I no longer need the things I did before
I [Gm] can't help but [Am] think there's so [D] much more
_ _ _ Tell _
[C] me [G] what you're thinking, [D] this I want to [C] know
Maybe [G] you could stay, [A] I am so alone
[Bb] Lay [C] down, [D] lay you down upon this bed
I [C] feel heavy [G] and the night is [D] taking over _
[Bb] There's no moon up [C] in the sky, we [D] can't sleep until it's light
[Bb] Let the darkness be our blanket
[C] _ _ _ _
[D] _ _ [Dm] _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
I'm no sinner [D] man, though I make mistakes
Weaving in and out of [Am] touch and doing what it takes
To [D] be lucid, warm and happy whenever I can
[Gm] It's no promise [Am] but it's my [D] loose play _ _
_ _ _ _ [C] Tell [G] me anything [Dm] if you'd be so kind
[C] Take [G] me away [A] from this restless [Bb] mind
Lay [C] down, [D] lay you down upon this bed
[C] Today has [G] been a long and [D] endless journey
[Bb] If you think that [C] it's alright, [D] we could dream right through this night
[Bb] Let the darkness be our [C] blanket
_ _ _ [D] _ _ [Dm] You
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
[Am] _ _ _ _ [Gm] _ _ _ [Dm] _
_ _ _ _ [Gm] _ [C] _ _ [F] _
[Dm] _ _ _ _ _ _ [C] _ _
[D] _ _ _ _ _ [Dm] are so [D] composed, you know how to live
True to yourself and [Am] always ready to forgive
[Dm] And you make it seem so [F]
[D] easy, almost like it's fun
[Gm] You must be peaceful [Am] when your day [D] is done
_ [C] The sun [G] is setting [Dm] once again
_ [C] It won't be [G] back for [A] hours, so until [Bb] then
Lay [C] down, [D] lay you down upon this bed
[C] I feel heavy [G] and the night is [D] taking over
_ [Bb] There's no moon [C] up in the sky, [D] we can't sleep until it's light
[Bb] Let the darkness be our [C] blanket
_ _ Lay _ [Dm] _ down _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
