Version 1(Simple Man was origionally done by Lynyrd Skynyrd and has been remade by Shinedown. I think they did an excellent job with the acoustic recreation of it, and man can that guy sing! Well, here you go) [Verse] C G Am Mama told me, when I was young C G Am Come sit beside me, my only son C G Am And listen closely, to what I say. C And if you do this G Am It will help you some sunny day. [Instrumental] C G Am [Verse] C G Am Take your time... Don't live too fast, C G Am Troubles will come, and they will pass. C G Am You'll find a woman, and you'll find love, C And don't forget that, G Am There is someone up above. [Chorus] C G Am And be a simple kind of man. C G Am Be something you love and understand. C G Am Be a simple kind of man. C G Won't you do this for me son, Am If you can? [Verse] C G Am Forget your lust for the rich man's gold C G Am All that you need is in your soul, C G Am And you can do this if you try. C All that I want for you my son, G Am Is to be satisfied. [Chorus] C G Am And be a simple kind of man. C G Am Be something you love and understand. C G Am Be a simple kind of man. C G Won't you do this for me son, Am If you can? [Bridge] C G Am Boy, don't you worry... you'll find yourself. C G Am Follow your heart and nothing else. C G Am And you can do this if you try. C All I want for you my son, G Am Is to be satisfied. [Chorus] C G Am And be a simple kind of man. C G Am Be something you love and understand. C G Am Be a simple kind of man. C G Won't you do this for me son, Am If you can?
