INSTRUMENTAL: Em C G D Ohh yeah... Em C G D FINALE: Em C Sometimes I think... it's just a simple thing G B C D I close my eyes and I realize all I really need Em D C Is the love I have... and the love I have to give G D C Anything else there is – is insignificant C It doesn't matter... in this tiny life OUTRO: Em C D Em C D Transcribed by: JV Ranopa
