Simple Simon - Words and music by Anthony Hill

Verse 1

C		F		G
There goes Simon, he’s got four girlfriends and a moped
	F			C	F	G	F
They all want to ride on
C		F		G
But he’s only got one helmet and there’s only one of him
F			C	F	G	F
So you know who will be wearing it

C		F		G
They’re smiling and laughing, and as someone always says
	F			C	F	G	F
It’s an accident waiting to happen
C		F		G
But he pretends that he cannot hear, he’s got his brothers’ licence
	F			C	F	G	F
And he’ll be old enough himself this time next year


Chorus

Am	G	F		Am	G	F	
A few more years from now, Simon will be looking round thinking
Am	G	F		Am	G	F
Why did nobody tell me, it wouldn’t always be so easy
Am	G	F		Am	G	F
To find a girl that likes me, now I’m older and I’m slightly
Am	G	F		Am	G	F	
Overweight and I’m alone, the girls I knew have grown
Am	G	F		G
They no longer answer the phone… when I ring them


Verse 2

C		F		G
It’s simple Simon, you picked all your fruit
	F			C	F	G	F
Before it even had time to ripen


C		F		G
Now all the girls that liked ya have seen what you really were
F			C	F	G	F
At school; a bit of a wanker!


Chorus

Am	G	F		Am	G	F	
Oh it’s such a shame, cos Simon has actually changed
Am	G	F		Am	G	F
He’s going “why did nobody tell me it wouldn’t always be so easy?”
Am	G	F		Am	G	F
To find a girl that likes me, now I’m older and I’m slightly
Am	G	F		Am	G	F	
Overweight and I’m alone, the girls I knew have grown
Am	G	F		G
They no longer answer the phone… when I ring them




Verse 3

C		F		G
It’s simple Simon; act your age and eventually
	F			C	F	G	F
A nice girl will come along and find you
C		F		G
It’s simple Simon; act your age and eventually 
F			C	F	G	F
The right girl will come along and maybe

C		F		G
Want to marry you and have your babies
	F			C	F	G	F
Not particularly in that order!


*Repeat Chorus*
