There once was a note pure and easy
|
Playing so free like a breathe rippling by
|
The note is eternal
|
I hear it it sees me
|
Forever we blend as forever we die
|
|
I listened and I heard music in a word
|
And words when you played your guitar
|
The noise that I was hearing was a million people cheering
|
And a child flew past me riding in a star
|
|
As people assemble
|
Civilization is trying to find a new way to die
|
But killing is really merely scene changer
|
All men are bored with other men's lives
|
|
I listened and I heard music in a word
|
And words when you played your guitar
|
The noise that I was hearing was a million people cheering
|
And a child flew past me riding in a star
|
|
Gas on the hillside
|
Oil in the tea cup
|
Watch all the chords of life lose their joy
|
Distortion becomes somehow pure in its wildness
|
The note that began all can also destroy
|
|
We all know success, when we all find our own dream
|
And our love is enough to knock down any wall
|
And the future's been seen, as men try to realize
|
The simple secret of the note in us all
|
|
In us all
|
|
In us all......... yea yea, yea
|
|
Left with one note
|
|
There once was a note pure and easy
|
Playing so free like a breathe rippling by
|
|
There once was a note listen (pure and easy)
|
There once was a note listen (pure and easy)
|
[etc].
|
Listen
