Simple Song Chords - The Shins

Singer - The Shins

Well (D) this is (A) just a (D) simple song (A)

To (D) say (A) what (D) you've done (A)

I told (D) you (A) about all (D) those fears (A)

And (D) away (A) they did (D) run

You sure (A) must be (G) strong

And you feel like an ocean

Made (D) warm (A) by the (D) sun (A) (D)

When I (D) was just (A) 9 years (D) old (A)

I swear (D) that (A) I (D) dreamt (A)

Your (D) face on a (A) football (D) field (A)

And a (D) kiss that (A) I kept (D)

Under (A) my (G) vest

I know (Bm) that things can (D) really get rough (G)

When you go it alone

Don't (Bm) go thinking you (D) gotta be tough (G)

And play like a stone

Could (Bm) be there's (D) nothing else in our lives so critical as this (G) little home

My (D) life in (A) an (D) upturned boat (A)

Marooned (D) on (A) a (D) cliff (A)

You (D) brought (A) me a (D) great big flood (A)

And (D) you gave (A) me a lift (D)

Girl, what a gift. (A) (G) And you tell me with your tongue and

You're breath was in my lungs

And you float over the (Bm) rift

I know (Bm) that things can (D) really get rough (G)

When you go it alone

Don't (Bm) go thinking you (D) gotta be tough (G)

And play like a stone

Could (Bm) be there's (D) nothing else in our lives so critical as this (G) little home

Well (D) this'll (A) be a (D) simple (A) song

To (D) say (A) what (D) you (A) done

I told (D) you (A) about all (D) those (A) fears

And (D) away (A) they did (D) run

You sure must (A) be (G) strong

And you feel like an ocean

Made warm by the (D) sun

Remember (Bm) walking a (D) mile to your house (G)

glow in the dark

I made a (Bm) fumblin' play (D) for your heart (G)

You wore (Bm) a charm on a (D) chain that I stole (G)

Especially for you

Love's (Bm) just a delicate (D) thing that we do (G)

And the act struck a spark

We've nothing to prove

Which I never (D) knew
