Simple Song chords by Iwan Rheon

Hello!
There are chords already up for this song that just require some (very) minor changes, but I thought it
might be helpful to cover the strumming pattern in more depth since it's not that simple a song (ha) for
beginners.
I'll put the lyrics/chords below the tab.

U/D: up/down strum. X: string slap / heavy palm muted strum.

G Bm    Em
I don't mind
       C     G      D
If you leave here tomorrow
         Bm   D     G
If I can hold you tonight

G Bm E

G  Bm Em
Emptiness
       C  G      D
in the garden of wanting
           Bm   D     G
If I could hold you tonight

G Bm Em

G                                 Bm
'Cause I've been listening to the radio
D                           C
And it's been telling me to be alone
Bm                           Em
But now I'm singing out here on their lawn
C  G   D
Simple song
G                         Bm
Please don't ask me why I feel afraid
D                                C
Take these thoughts and feelings to the grave
Bm                        Em
Let us laugh and cry it's all the same
C  G   D
Simple song
Bm    D  G
Prove me wrong

G     Bm Em
Sleep tonight
C        G       D
On a bed made of promise
         Bm   D       G
Let your hope be your light

G Bm Em

G     Bm Em
Dream tonight
         C      G        D
Let each breath fill the darkness
         Bm   D          G
And your love fills your life

G Bm Em

G                                 Bm
'Cause I've been listening to the radio

And it's been telling me to be alone

But now I'm singing out there on their lawn
C  G   D
Simple song

Please don't ask me why I feel afraid
