Verse:
Gm F Eb
I wrote a simple song
Eb F Bbsus Bb
With simple words and harmony
Gm F Eb F G
It wasn't very long before a star I was bound to be
Gm F Eb
I didn't care if it made the charts
Eb F Bbsus Bb
I only wrote it for you and me
Gm F Eb
They think that they're so smart
Eb F G
They're not as smart as they want to be
Gm F Eb
They took my simple song
Eb F Bbsus Bb
They changed the words and the melody
Gm F Eb
Made it all sound wrong
Eb F G
Now it sounds like a symphony
