Utada Hikaru - Simple And Clean

      Songs like this are the reason I took ear training in college. No capo used here because it doesn't sound like
they used one in the recording. Based on the ending found at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Qynb-f79BuE

Also, I copied lyrics and chord formatting off elsophie's version, so thank you elsophie. You can find that
version at https://tabs.ultimate-guitar.com/tab/utada_hikaru/simple_and_clean_chords_1212067

For those interested in improvising/soling over this song, the chorus and verses are in Bb major, but the
prechoruses are in C minor.



[Chorus]

Ebmaj7
When you walk away
Gm
You don't hear me say,
Cm          Bb
"Please, oh baby, don't go."
Ebmaj7/G                F                         Emaj7
Simple and clean is the way that you're making me feel tonight
Fsus4        F
It's hard to let it go

[Verse 1]

Cm               Bb
You're giving me too many things lately,
Cm                 Bb
You're all I need. You smiled at me and said,

[Prechorus 1]

Abmaj7
"Don't get me wrong, I love you,
G7                            Cm
But does that mean I have to meet your father?"
Cm                       Abmaj7
When we are older you'll understand
       G7
What I meant when I said,
Ab         Bb           Gsus4         G
"No, I don't think life is quite that simple"

[Chorus]

Ebmaj7
When you walk away
Gm
You don't hear me say,
Cm          Bb
"Please, oh baby, don't go."
Ebmaj7/G                F                         Emaj7
Simple and clean is the way that you're making me feel tonight
Fsus4        F
It's hard to let it go

[Verse 2]

Cm               Bb
The daily things that keep us all busy
Cm                Bb
Are confusing me, that's when you came to me and said,

[Prechorus 2]

Abmaj7
"Wish I could prove I love you,
G7                           Cm
But does that mean I have to walk on water?"
Cm                       Abmaj7
When we are older you'll understand
         G7            Ab
It's enough when I say so
    Bb         Gsus4           G
And maybe some things are that simple

[Chorus]

Ebmaj7
When you walk away
Gm
You don't hear me say,
Cm          Bb
"Please, oh baby, don't go."
Ebmaj7/G                F                         Emaj7
Simple and clean is the way that you're making me feel tonight
Fsus4        F
It's hard to let it go

[Outro]

Ebmaj7
Hold me
Gm                        Cm
Whatever lies beyond this morning
     Bb
Is a little later on
Ebmaj7/G                   F                          Ebmaj7
Regardless of warnings the future doesn't scare me at all
Fsus7     F
Nothing's like before
