B
 You're such a poet
                D#m
I wish I could be Wesley Willis
   C#m                            E
My words would flow like honey, sweet and laid on thick
B
 You're so edgy
              D#m
You dont even need a rhyming dictionary
   C#m                                 E
I wipe my hands on your jeans, 'cause they are more distressed
           B
So they say you got O.C.D
          D#m
And they claim you can barely read
        C#m                       E
But you say "Don't bother me with all of your reality"


B              E         G#m
 But it could be so simple
(You overthink it)
              F#
 Life should be that simple
(Who would have thought it?)
B                E           G#m
 I wish it were just so simple
(Don't overthink it)
                      F#
But the point's been missed

You've made a mess
                F#7
Who would have guessed
                           B
That it's as simple as it seems

 E  G#m  Em7


     B
So what, you're a genius
           D#m
But you've got a lot to learn
        C#m
Like the time you lost your apartment
          E
Cause you bought too much Vuitton
     B
You park in a loading zone
     D#m
You sleep with the lights all on
               C#m
You cross your I's and you dot your T's
  E
It, all it goes to show

B               E         G#m
 That it could be so simple
(You overthink it)
              F#
 Life should be that simple
(Who would have thought it?)
B                E             G#m
 I wish it were just that simple
(Don't overthink it)
                      F#
But the point's been missed

We've made a mess
                F#7
Who would have guessed
                           B
That it's as simple as it seems

         E                         G#m
I'm not saying that it's a piece of cake
             F#               B
Just take a moment to re-evaluate
         E
The possibilities
        G#m
The situations
         F#
The opportunities
      B
That are waiting
 E           G#m
Oh, the possibilities
F#
   Oh, I

          B            E           G#m
It could be, it could be that simple
(You overthink it)
              F#
 Life should be that simple
(Who would have thought it?)
B                E           G#m
 I wish it were just so simple
(Don't overthink it)
             F#
You're in a haze

It's just a fase
                F#7
You know this maze
                    B
Is as simple as it seems


We could talk all day
E
 About your eccentricities
G#m
 What I mean to say
 F#                                B
Oh, is that I need you listen please
             E                    G#m
And focus on, on life's simplicities
                                 F#
So don't be afraid to strip it away
                           F#7
Cause at the end of the day
                            B
It's still as simple as it seems

It is all so simple
Just deal with it
