Simple And Free

G
My path in life was chosen

Em
In a flurry of emotion

C                                 
You know the music seemed to sweep
           G     D
 me off my feet

G
And I didn’t have much choice

Em
But to follow her clear voice

C                                 
To try to find the things she had 
            G    D
in store for me


PDC HORUS

Em                                 
I could have been a scientist but I 
C
don’t mean to whine

                G               
It’s just that I am so much more 
                D
than what you see

Em                                
I could have been a million things
   C
 to gain respect from kings and 
queens

        G
But I chose a minstrels life

               D
Simple and free simple and free 
simple and free

CHORUS

G                                 
I don’t mind the fact these 
    B
musical notes

Haunt my mind and resonate from my 
  Em
bones

                            C
Simple and free is what I said

                           G  B  
Simple and free ‘til I’m dead
Em B


VERSE

My path in life was chosen in a 
flurry of emotion
You know the spirit seemed to take 
me by the hand
And I didn’t have much choice but to
 listen for his voice
And try to help my boy as he became 
a man

PDC HORUS

I could have been a novelist
Unwinding worlds that don’t exist or
 a hundred other things I do believe
I could have written you a symphony
Become the queen of everything
But I chose a minstrels life
Simple and free simple and free 
simple and free

CHORUS

INTERLUDE
C    G    D

BRIDGE
(Chorus Chords)

I lost myself inside these musical 
notes
The melody swells and takes me home
I’ve never been alone
I will always find rest
Simple and free ‘til I’m dead
