Just A Sinner - from Carly's Simon debut album - 1971
F      C             Eb          Bb
Today I was gonna conquer the world

Eb          Bb          Eb    F
Go on ahead and make a stand

      C              Eb      Bb
Today I saw an old friend a dyin'

        Eb          Bb      Eb         F
And as he lay there no one lent a hand

           Am
I'm gonna call you up

Dm7                        F
You'll forsake the one you love

Dm7                     Am        C7sus
Though I've left you many times before 

                 F
You are just a sinner

Csus                   C
I was the one who understands

F7sus                 F
You were my one and only man

Am     C         Dm       Bb
I was lost, now I'm the winner

                                 C
You stand there waitin' by the shore

Fsus          F 
But I don't come that way no more

Am        C         Am     Bb
Because you are just a sinner

F      C             Eb          Bb
Today I was gonna hold out my hand

Eb          Bb          Eb    F
Reach up for that light and let it shine

      C              Eb      Bb
Today I have no light to guide me

        Eb          Bb      Eb         F
Feelin' like the one they left behind

        Am
So I called you up

Dm7                        F
You left your love and took me away

Dm7                     Am        C7sus
Though I've left you many times before

                 F
You are just a sinner.

Csus                   C
I am the only one, you see

F7sus                 F
You were the only one for me

Am     C         Dm       Bb
I was lost, now I'm the winner

                                 C
You'll keep the candle burning bright

Fsus          F 
But I won't be home tonight

Am        C         Am     Bb
Because you are just a sinner

F      C             Eb          Bb
Today I was gonna conquer the world

Eb          Bb          Eb    F
Go on ahead and make a stand

      C              Eb      Bb
Today I saw an old friend a dyin'

        Eb          Bb      Eb         F
And as he lay there no one lent a hand
