Keep It Simple

　　Keep It Simple-Tommy Emmanuel

　　They mocked me when I was singing the songs

　　Trying to get back to something more simple than we have

　　They mocked me 'cos I told it like it was

　　Wrote about disappointment and greed

　　Wrote about what we really didn't need in our lives

　　Make us feel alive and whole

　　Illusions and pipe dreams on the one hand

　　And straight reality is always cold

　　Saying something hard edged is off the wall

　　And it might seem too bold

　　Mocked me when it got out of hand

　　Nobody tried to understand

　　Now we got to keep it simple and that's that

　　Illusions and pipe dreams on the one hand

　　And straight reality is always cold

　　Saying something hard edged is off the wall

　　And it just might be too bold

　　Well I'm down here on the running board

　　Where I've been many times before

　　But we got to keep it simple to save ourselves

　　Mocked me when I tried to get back

　　Said the train was completely off the track

　　And we got to get back to something simple to save ourselves

　　Whoa we got to get back to something simple just to save yourselves

　　Well got to get back to something simple just to save yourselves

　　Well you got to keep it simple, keep it simple just to - and that's that

　　Whoa you got to keep it simple nowadays and that's just that

　　Whoa you got to keep it simple nowadays and that's just the way it is

　　And you got to keep it simple these days 'cos that's the way it is

　　Well you got to keep it, keep it simple and that's that
