Capo 1st fret

Standard (EADGBE)

Intro

I'll never be anybody's hero or the legend of a story

Or a saint that's bound for glory, no

And I'll never know what it's like to swim in money

Or how it feels not to have to go to work on Monday

I'm a simple man, and that's okay

 But even a simple man wants to feel this way.

Chorus

Like the king of his castle, like the leader of the pack

Like a man that if you left him, you'd just have to have him back

Like a rock that you would lean on when your world gets too rough

Like a man that you would stand beside when he's not so tough.

But even if that's not the man you see

Then just love me, just love me.

I'll never write a song that lasts forever or a book for all the ages

But I'm not full of empty pages, no

'Cause I got a soul, and I use it for yearnin'

With a heart that skips a beat for you and a fire that keeps on burnin'

I'm a simple man, yeah, that's okay

 But even a simple man wants to feel this way.

Chorus

Like the king of his castle, like the leader of the pack

Like a man that if you left him, you'd just have to have him back

Like a rock that you would lean on when your world gets too rough

Like a man that you would stand beside when he's not so tough.

But even if that's not the man you see

Then just love me, just love me.

Oh, I'm a simple man, and that's okay

But even a simple man wants to be swept away, and feel

Chorus

Like the king of his castle, like the leader of the pack

Like a man that if you left him, you'd just have to have him back

Like a rock that you would lean on when your world gets too rough

Like a man that you would stand beside even when he's not so tough.

But even if that's not the man you see

Then just love me, just love me...
