Paul Williams - Simple Man

      [Intro]
G

[Verse 1]
   G
I am a simple man
       Bm7
And I sing a simple song
     Em            Em7
I've never been so much in love
    C                        G
And never hurt so bad at the same time

[Break]
G

[Verse 2]
  G
I am a simple man
      Bm7
And I play a simple tune
  Em                Em7          C
I wish that I could see you once again
Across the room
        G
Like the first time

[Chorus]
  C
I just want to hold you
                         G      D
I don't want to hold you down
  C
I hear what you're saying
                             G
And you're spinning my head around
        D        C
I can't make it alone

[Instrumental]
G Bm7 Em Em7 C G

[Break]
G

[Verse 3]
     G
The ending of the tale
       Bm7
Is the singing of the song
Em               Em7
Make me proud to be your man
C
Only you can make me strong
          G
Like the last time

[Chorus]
  C
I just want to hold you
                         G      D
I don't want to hold you down
  C
I hear what you're saying
                             G
And you're spinning my head around
        D        C
I can't make it alone
