I want a simple life

Like my mother.

One true love for my older years.

I don't want your wars

To take my children.

I want a simple life while I'm here.
[Verse 1]
D G
The sun and moon walk hand in hand together,
D G
Trading places shining on the truth.

The moon moves the bottoms of the oceans

So the sun can bring a farmer's hands to you.

We all seek comfort in the light of day,

And our tears can wash off in the rain.

Everything we need is all around us
D G
In simple time and simple ways.

Mother nature talks,
D
Whispering her thoughts
G C
So the paths we choose to cross
D
Walk one more day.
[Chorus]
G C
I want a simple life

Like my mother.

One true love for my older years.

I don't want your wars
G
To take my children.
D G C
I want a simple life while I'm here.
