Simplify

(Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh)

You left your job to calm the voices in your head
Took long drives instead of laying awake in bed
You left that world you didn't need anymore
There's not much left when you ain't keeping score
They can't win if you're determined to be last
You can't lose if you're not clinging to your past
You thought your wisdom was heaven sent
But you found freedom on the day you would relent

You play your guitar just to simplify things
You like the feel of those six lonely strings
You bend for no one, and I'll just let that be
But I need you to bend those strings for me
I need to simplify
Yeah, I need you to bend those strings for me
I need to simplify

The days were getting short, the nights were much too long
Started feeling like something must be wrong
Always rushing, always headed for the door
Maybe looking for a new world to explore
The guitar was both your friend and your art
But it showed you were bruised from the start
The answer was somewhere in the sound
It came from your fingers when no one was around

You play your guitar just to simplify things
You like the feel of those six lonely strings
You bend for no one, and I'll just let that be
But I need you to bend those strings for me
I need to simplify
Yeah, I need you to bend those strings for me
I need to simplify

You play your guitar just to simplify things
You like the feel of those six lonely strings
You bend for no one, and I'll just let that be
But I need you to bend those strings for me
I need to simplify
Yeah, I need you to bend those strings for me
I need to simplify
