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