[Verse]
G Em C
In and out
G
That's the way in
Em C
I saw an old sign
G
When my world was way down
Cm Em
Quiet on the streets
G
So I climbed the stairs
C Em
To the rarified air
G
I've been on fire
Em C
Made from my thoughts
G
I thought up my life by
[Verse 2]
G Em C
Out then back in
G
That's the way to begin
Cm Em
But I had to climb down
G
Into today
Em
And give up the pain
G
I held myself up by
[Chorus]
C Em G
Baby, be simple
C Em
Baby, be simple,
G
Be simple
D
Be simple with me
[Verse 3]
G Em C
Out, thicker skin
G
That's no way to begin
Em C
Come with your true arc
G
To fall all the way down
Cm Em
Like an empire
G
Into a kingdom of guts
C Em
To become a rooftop
B
I built me from the bedrock
G#m E
Made me right up
B
Ignited little tunes
G#m E
While the wind was still
B
Trying to find a way to tell you
G#m E
If or not the true arc
B
Is even there
G#m E
Or on a pillow of air
B
I'll rip me apart by the lore
G#m E
Cause to become that rooftop
F#
I had to fall all the way down
[Chorus 3]
E B
Baby, be simple
E Em G#m
Baaaaaby, please be simple
B
Be simple
F#
Be simple with me
[Outro]
