INTRO
Dsus2 Dm Cmaj7 C x1
VERSE
Dsus2 Dm Cmaj7 C
For a long time I was in love
Dsus2 Dm Cmaj7 C
Not only in love, I was obsessed
Dsus2 Dm Cmaj7 C
With a friendship that no one else could touch
Dsus2 Dm Cmaj7 C
It didn’t work out, I’m covered in shells
CHORUS
C C7 F
And all I wanted was the simple things
Bb Cmaj7 C
A simple kind of life
C C7 F
And all I needed was a simple man
Bb
So I could be the wife
VERSE
I’m so ashamed, I’ve been so mean
I don’t know how it got to this point
I always was the one with all the love
You came along, I’m hunting you down
CHORUS
Like a sick domestic abuser looking for a fight
And all I wanted was the simple things
A simple kind of life
Dm C# C B
If we met tomorrow for the very first time
Dm C# C B
Would it start all over again? Would I try to make you mine?
VERSE
I always thought I’d be a mom
Sometimes I wish for a mistake
The longer that I wait the more selfish that I get
You seem like you’d be a good dad
CHORUS
Now all those simple things are simply too
Complicated for my life
How’d I get so faithful to my freedom?
When all I ever wanted was the simple things
A simple kind of life
