For a long time I was in love 
D2              D5             Cadd9       C 
Not only in love, I was obsessed 
D2       D5                  Cadd9                     C 
With a friendship that no one else could touch 
D2                 D5                          Cadd9       C 
It didn?t work out, I?m covered in shells 
 
C                 C7                 F  
And all I wanted was the simple things 
Bb                     Cmaj7 
A simple kind of life 
C                   C7            F 
And all I needed was a simple man 
     Bb                   Cmaj7 
So I could be a wife 
 
I?m so ashamed, I?ve been so mean 
I don?t know how it got to this point 
I always was the one with all the love 
You came along, I?m hunting you down 
Like a sick domestic abuser looking for a fight 
And all I wanted was the simple things 
A simple kind of life

If we met tomorrow for the very first time 
Dm             Dmaj7 
Would it start all over again? 
Dm7                                Dm6 
Would I try to make you mine? 
 
I always thought I?d be a mom 
Sometimes I wish for a mistake 
The longer that I wait the more selfish that I get 
You seem like you?d be a good dad 
 
Now all those simple things are simply too complicated for my life 
How?d I get so faithful to my freedom? 
A selfish kind of life 
When all I ever wanted was the simple things 
A simple kind of life
