[Intro 1]
[D][G][D][E][A][D][G]
[Gm][D][A][D][A]

[Verse 1]
[D]It
just occurs to me on this night,
[G]being her[D]e this night,
it seems like [E]this will [A]be a good song, you know,
as [D]long as if you're filming this and recording it,
I'd [G]like to send this out [Gm]with love
to Bill [Bb]Graham [D]tonight,
[A]if I could.[D][A][D][G][D][E]
[A][D][G][Gm][D][A][D][A]
[D]I'm tired, joy boy,
while you're [G]out with the [D]sheep
My life is such trouble, I can[E]'t go to sleep
[A]And I would wal[D]k myself out,
but the [G]streets are so dark
[Gm]I would wa[D]it till the morning
and [A]walk in the [D]park[G][D]
[E][A][D][G][Gm][D][A]
[D]
[A]Yeah, lif[D]e is so simple
when [G]one is at home
[D]And I'm never complaining
when there's [E]work to be done
[A]Oh, I'm tir[D]ed, Joy Boy,
of the [G]makings of men
I [Gm]would [D]like to be [A]cheerful [D]again
And ambi[G]tion will take you
And ride you [A]too far
[D]And conser[E]vatism bring you
To [A]boredom once more
[D]So go out by the river
[G]Watch a stream flow
[D]Recall all those dreams
You [E]once used to know
[A]The[D] ones you've forgotten
That [G]took you away
[Gm]To p[D]astures not gr[A]eener,
[D]but mean[A]er[D][G][D][E][A]
[D][G][Gm][D][A][D]
[A]Yeah, the [D]love of the simple
is [G]all that I need
[D]Have no time for schism
or lovers [E]of greed
[A]Go up [D]to the mountain,
go [G]up to the glen
[Gm]Where [D]si lence will touch you
and [A]heartbreak will [D]mend
You
