Keep It Simple chords by Van Morrison

Intro: F Bb x6

Verse 1
   F           Bb
They mocked me when I was singing the songs
     F              Bb
Trying to get back to something more simple than we have
   Bb        C      F  Bb
They mocked me cos I told it like it was
F         Bb
Wrote about disappointment and greed
    F              Bb
Wrote about what we really didn't need in our lives
     C       F
Make us feel alive and whole

Chorus:
  Bb         C            F
  Illusions and pipe dreams on the one hand
  Bb       C        F
  And straight reality is always cold
  A7                   D
  Saying something hard edged is off the wall
  G           C
  And it might seem too bold
Verse 2:
F               Bb
Mocked me when it got out of hand
F           Bb
Nobody tried to understand
        Bb     C        F
Now we got to keep it simple and that's that

Solo: F Bb F Bb Bb C F x2

CHORUS

Verse 3:
     F         Bb
Well I'm down here on the running board
F           Bb
Where I've been many times before
    Bb          C     F
But we got to keep it simple to save ourselves
F             Bb
Mocked me when I tried to get back
      F              Bb
Said the train was completely off the track
    Bb               C        F
And we got to get back to something simple to save ourselves

Bridge:
Dm       Bb           C         F
Whoa we got to get back to something simple just to save yourselves
Dm  Bb               C         F
Well got to get back to something simple just to save yourselves

Repeat with vocals
