Simple Harmony

Apocalypse is coming

Everybody's feeling the weight

Endless apprehension

Too much sorrow on our plate

Baby take a moment

Everybody take a breath

This old earth depends on birth

As much as it depends on death

I woke up in Brooklyn

Under the Manhattan bridge

You can't separate the wine from the grapes

And the magnet on the fridge

It's a circle not a straight line

It's just going round and round

You don't have a plan, join in if you can

Open your mouth, it don't matter the sound

You've got to sing that simple harmony

You don't have to sing it perfectly

Sing it once then let's sing it again

If it's a comedy or a tragedy

It doesn't matter much to me

Sing that simple harmony my friend

Take me to the country

Take me home to meet your mum and dad

Read me from teenage journals

You forgot you even had

When did you read that book dear

The one that you keep to the bone

Did it make you grieve

Or did it make you believe

That the end of the show, we may not be alone

That old time religion

Never did much for me

But I'll never tire of that gospel choir

It's spirit get me moving my feet

Started off in Detroit, all the way to Mexico

Down in Brazil, man it gives me a thrill

'Cause I want to go where the people all know

You've got to sing that simple harmony

You don't have to sing it perfectly

Sing it once then let's sing it again

If it's a comedy or a tragedy

It doesn't matter much to me

Sing that simple harmony my friend

You've got to sing that simple harmony (sing that simple harmony)

You've got to sing that simple harmony (sing that simple harmony)

You've got to sing that simple harmony (sing that simple harmony)

You've got to sing that simple harmony (sing that simple harmony)

You've got to sing that simple harmony

You don't have to sing it perfectly

Sing it once then let's sing it again

If it's a comedy or a tragedy

It doesn't matter much to me

Sing that simple harmony my friend

Sing that simple harmony

You don't have to sing it perfectly

Sing it once then let's sing it again

If it's a comedy or a tragedy

It doesn't matter much to me

Sing that simple harmony my friend
