It's as simple as tAmhis, here it iCs, couldn't sFpell it out more cGlearly

It's coming undAmone, so you rCun, well I'm ciFrcling the dGrain pipe
An inviAmtation to jCust forgetF, but I'm not fCinished yet
I Fgot big plans
[Chorus]
CCut off Gthe tEmape and undFo the mat
CWashed oGut and faEmded like a pFhotograph
And I spCell oGut your nEmame across the oFverpass
It's as simple as tAmhat

[intro]
It's as simple as this, what'd I miss, I will carry to the last day
Deliver my spark through the dark to the angles in the ashtray
Saturation of hopeless needs, but as the asphalt bleeds
Curtains rise and
[chorus]
Some day you'll find me standing in your path
And I'm deep in the background of some photograph
And you'll see your name scrawled across the overpass

It's as simple as tAhat, ohFh
CSimple's hard eDmnough now anyFway  
CSimple's hard eDmnough now anyFway

Some day you'll find me standing in your path
Somewhere deep in the background of some photograph    x2
And you'll see your name scrawled across the overpass
[bridge]
It's as simple as that
Simple's hard enough now anyway x4

An invitation to just forget, but I'm not finished yet

I got big plans

Washed out and faded like a photograph

And I spell out your name across the overpass

It's as simple as that

Deliver my spark through the dark to the angles in the ashtray

Saturation of hopeless needs, but as the asphalt bleeds

Curtains rise and

And I'm deep in the background of some photograph

And you'll see your name scrawled across the overpass
