              Cm                       G              
It's a simple town; with a lonely sound
                        Ab
There's demons in the trees
                 Cm
Come and rescue me

               Cm                             G
It's a simple town; where the face becomes a veil
                          Ab
Where the eyes become a jail;
                             Cm
For the settlers minds to pale

                     Cm
It's just a simple town
                      G
Where the secrets drown
                    Ab
Before they get around
                              Cm
But tonight they have been found

Eb                                      Bb7
With the words come shatter out your mouth
                   Abm                    Eb
You made a thundercloud come and rain on me
                                 Bb7
Under a simple sky in a simple town
                     Abm                    Eb
You made a knife of sound, cut the air for me
                 Cm
Cut the secrets free

(same thing on second verse and chorus)

It's a simple town, just a simple town
But that simple choked
The life right out of me
Cause simple things
Aren't so simple anymore
Death is easy to ignore
When it's numbers on a screen
And that simple town
It likes a simple war; chooses red or blue
The rest can be ignored
While the secrets wait; on tortured lips
Till they're moved to sing; with the passion of a kiss
And there's the words...
