Tom: C

          C      G            Am
    Momma told me, when I was young,
           C      G         Am
    "Sit beside me, my only son,
               C      G           Am
    and listen closely, to what I say,
               C              G                   Am
    and if you do this, it'll help you some sunny day.


                 C    G               Am
    Oh 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         G                     Am
    And don't forget son, there is someone up above.

    CHORUS:
             C     G         Am
    And be a simple, kind of man.
            C         G                    Am
    Well be something, you'll love and understand.
              C     G         Am
    Baby be a simple, kind of man.
                 C               G           Am
    Oh won't you do this, for me son, if you can.


                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
    Oh you can do this, if you try.
               C               G                 Am
    All that I want for you my son, is to be satisfied.

    (Chorus)


                 C    G                Am
    Oh don't you worry, you'll find yourself.
                C     G            Am
    Follow your heart, and nothin' else.
               C          G           Am
    Oh you can do this for me, if you try.
               C               G                 Am
    All that I want for you my son, is to be satisfied.
    (Chorus)
