simple man chords and lyrics - MATT MASON

Lời & hợp âm

[Verse 1]
[F]I[Dm]
ain't nothin' but a simple man,
they [C]call me a redneck the
recker that I am
but these [G]things goin' on make me
mad down to [Dm]the core.
Gotta work like a dog to make ends meet,
with those [C]cookin'
polititions and crime in the streets,
[G]I moderned hell and I ain't
gonna take it no more.
[Dm]Gotta tell our kids to just say no,
and some [C]panny waist judge
let a drug dealer [G]go
slaps him on the wrist and turns
him back onto [Dm]the town.
I had my way with people selling dope
but take a [C]big tall tree
and a short piece of rope
and [G]hang 'em up high and let 'em swing
'til the sun goes [Dm]down.

[Verse 2]
[Dm]You know what's wrong
with the world today,
[C]people done gone put their
bibles [G]away
they're livin' by law of jungle
not the law [Dm]of the land.
The good book says so I know its the truth
an [C]eye for an eye and a tooth
for a tooth
you've gotta [Dm]watch where you're goin',
re[C]member where you've been,
[G]that's the way I see it I'm a simple [Dm]man.

[Verse 3]
[Dm]I'm the kind of man
that wouldn't hurt a mouse,
but if I [C]catch somebody breakin' in my house,
[G]I've gotta 12 gauge shotgun
waiting on the other [Dm]side.
So don't go pushin me against my will,
[C]I don't want to have to fight you
but I darn sure [G]will.
So if you don't want trouble,
you better just pass me on [Dm]by.
As far I know there ain't no excuse
for the [C]rapin' and the killin'
and the child ab[G]use
and I've gotta way to put an
end to all [Dm]that mess.
You take them rascals out in the swamp,
[C]put em' on their knees and tie
em' to a [G]stump
let the raddlers and the bugs and the
alligators do [Dm]the rest.

[Verse 4]
[Dm]You know what's wrong
with the world today,
[C]people done gone put their
bibles away
they're [G]livin' by law of jungle
not the law [Dm]of the land.
The good book says so I know [D]its the truth
a [C]eye for an eye and a tooth
for a tooth
you've gotta [Dm]watch where you're goin'
re[C]member where you've been,
[G]that's the way I see it I'm a
simple [Dm]man.

[Verse 5]
You've gotta watch where you're goin'
[C]remember where you've been,
[G]that's the way I see it I'm a simple man.

[Outro 1]
[G][Dm]
