Simple and Free - Vocal Few 
CAPO 4
[Verse]
GMy path in life was chosen
In a Emflurry of emotion
You know the muCsic seemed to sweep me off my fGeetD  
And I dGidn’t have much choice
But to foEmllow her clear voice
To try to fCind the things she had in store for GmeD  
[Pre-Chorus]
I cEmould have been a scientist but I doCn’t mean to whine
It’s just that GI am so much more than what you sDee
I cEmould have been a million things to gCain respect from kings and queens
But I chGose a minstrels life
Simple and frDee simple and free simple and free
[Chorus]
GI don’t mind the fact these musical nBmotes
Haunt my mind and resonate from my bEmones
Simple and free is what I saCid
Simple and free ‘til I’m deGadBm  Em  Bm  
[Verse]
My path in life was chosen in a flurry of emotion
You know the spirit seemed to take me by the hand
And I didn’t have much choice but to listen for his voice
And try to help my boy as he became a man
[Pre-Chorus]
I could have been a novelist
Unwinding worlds that don’t exist or a hundred other things I do believe
I could have written you a symphony
Become the queen of everything
But I chose a minstrels life
Simple and free simple and free simple and free
[Chorus]
[Interlude]
C    Em    D
[Bridge]
(Chorus Chords) 
I lost myself inside these musical notes
The melody swells and takes me home
I’ve never been alone
I will always find rest
Simple and free ‘til I’m dead
