INTRO:

VERSE 1:
G
Looking down out of this little round window
Em
On silver wings at 20,000 feet
C
At lakes and the streams and fields of green
C D
I tend to think the most peculiar things
G
Ribbons of highways, side roads, and byways
Em
People going all ways, always in a hurry
C
Gotta get there, but just where, from up here
C D
I'm not sure where it's all going... or what it all means
CHORUS:
Em C
But sometimes I think... it's just a simple thing
G D/F# C D
I close my eyes and I realize all I really need
Em C
Is the love I have... and the love I have to give
G D C
Anything else there is – is insignificant
D Em C D
In this tiny life
VERSE 2:
G Em
Wheels hit the runways, Mondays run into Mondays
Some days are better than some days
C
I can't see the sky, skyscraper's too high
C D
30-second daydream at another red light
G
I'm back in my hometown, on roads that we rode down
Em
Those sights and sounds are yesterdays now
C
There's deadlines and stress lines, too much on my mind
C D
I'm getting it all... but what's it all for
CHORUS:
Em C
Sometimes I think... it's just a simple thing
G D/F# C D
I close my eyes and I realize all I really need
Em C
Is the love I have... and the love I have to give
G D C
Anything else there is – is insignificant
D G
In this tiny life
BRIDGE:
F
It's the love we make, it's the dreams we share
C
The friends we find in our short time here
F
It's knowing God's grace, the touch of a hand
C
Holding a baby, calling Mom and Dad
F
It's making the most of the moments we have
C
And getting to live long enough to look back
F
On the years, the sweet tears of joy and laughter
D
That's all that really matters...
INSTRUMENTAL:
Em C G D
Ohh yeah...
Em C G D
FINALE:
Em C
Sometimes I think... it's just a simple thing
G B C D
I close my eyes and I realize all I really need
Em D C
Is the love I have... and the love I have to give
G D C
Anything else there is – is insignificant
C
It doesn't matter... in this tiny life
