Paolo Nutini - Simple Things

song : simple things
artist : paolo nutini

good luck : )

E
if you love the life you live , then you’ll get a lot more done
E B
be more inclined to take the reins than turn away and run
E A
it’s very rare it seems to get a lifetime guarantee ,
E B
so i suppose self satisfaction be the key

E
my father is a wealthy , self made man
E B
but his wealth does not consist of riches or acres of land
A E
instead he has a family who are his biggest fans
B
that’s something that i one day hope to have

A
so i’ll cherish the simple things
E
the easy took for granted things
E B
like going round my mum’s house for my tea
A
and argue with my sister ,
E
only god knows how i missed her
B E
it’s the simple things that mean the most to me

[ harmonica refrain ]
( up the tempo )

E
argh , he gets up each day at five starts the car and makes the drive
E
shutters up , starts the fryers
B E
serves out food to all the buyers in the town as they stand there in the same old line
A
get there every day at the same old time
E
no , you never gonna’ hear him grumble and groan
B
cause they’re the people in the line that he built it on

A
and like me he cherished the simple things
E
the easy took for granted things
E B
like going round his mum’s house for his tea
A
and argue with his sister ,
E
only god knows how he missed her
B E
it’s the simple things that mean the most to . . . him
