Just that simple Alicia Healey 6/8 time, rocks between C and C6/D throughout the verses, same on the F with the chorus C She’s got one tattoo crawling up her arm another running down her back She’s got two boys waiting at home In a double-wide, down by the track CHORUS: F At night her dreams the same as yours A good song, a full glass, a smile with a dimple Ain't too hard to understand It's just that simple C When the day opens up, sometimes it’s hard to get started But with toast and a shot some are easier than others She takes longer showers, when her kids are with their dad And all-in-all the day-to-day isn’t that bad CHORUS BRIDGE: G F | C Lonely ain’t the same as alone G F | C Most times she doesn’t mind at all G F | C Am | Am She’s got friends down the street, but she secretly waits F | % | % | % For a soft place to fall. SOLO (over Bridge) She gave her lower leg for her country Her waist for kids Her heart to a bastard from Poulsbo Who said he’d come back, but never did. CHORUS CHORUS

Fly the Moon Alicia Healey Long away, far ago I finally found what I had to know So I redefined the sun Sometimes red, sometimes gold Sometimes warm, sometimes cold Far away, and all alone But I looked again and saw Several stars and planets above And I knew that I was here for you To fly the moon Can a dream come true these days Through all the noise, all the haze When you took my hand I knew they could Together we walk along our way, Our new life, our new day Never blinking , never missing a moment And I looked again and saw Several stars and planets above And I knew I was here for you To fly the moon When you leave to make the world your own No matter how far, I’ll always be your home I’ll be here with the sun
