I don't know why you wanna start with me _
I ain't do nothin' far as I can see
[A] Puttin' one album workin' too hard
Why don't you give me [D] a break? _ _ _ _ _ _
I know that lately things ain't been so good
But I make it up just like I told you I [A] would
I'm tired of _ sittin' down to read my old [D] magazine
_ You _ say you're having [G] trouble figuring me
_ I don't believe in [D] such a mystery
_ _ Baby, what [A] you get is what you see
_ I am a simple [D] man
_ _ _ I want a [G] job and a piece of land
_ Three squares in [D] my frying pan
Don't seem so hard to me [A] to _ understand
I am a simple [D]
man
_ _ _ _ _ You say we've got some things to talk about _
A lot of problems that we need to work out
[A] But we're just into fightin'
Why [Am] don't you give it [D] a rest? _ _ _ _ _ _
I don't know what else I can say to you _
I'm doin' anything I know to do
[A] And I can't give you anything or more
When I give you [D] my best
_ You say you're having [G] trouble figuring me
I don't believe in [D] such a mystery
_ _ Baby, what you [A] get is what you see
I am a simple [D]
man
_ _ I want a job [G] and a piece of land
_ Three squares [D] in my frying pan
Don't seem so hard to [A] me to understand

man
_ _ I _ _ [G] _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ [D] _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ [A] _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ [D] _
_ _ _ _ want a place that [G] I can lay my head
Soft woman [D] in a warm bed
A little time [A] off before I'm [D] dead
[A] I'm just a simple [D]
man
_ _ You say you're having [G] trouble figuring me
I don't believe in [D] such a mystery
