Pete Townshend – Pure And Easy (Guitar)

       C          G    F        G
 There once was a note, pure and easy

 C         G           F       G        C
 Playing so free like a breath, rippling by

 Fmaj7                  Dm7
 The note is eternal, I hear it, it sees me,

 F                   Dm         C
 Forever we blend as, forever we die

   C              Dm    F          G
 I listened and I heard music in a word,

     C              Dm             F     G
 and words when you played your guitar

     Dm               Em
 The noise that I was hearing

       G              Am
 was a million people cheering

 G                        C/G         G7       C/G
 And a child flew past me riding in a star

    Dm               Am
 As people assemble, civilization

     G               Dm7        G
 Is trying to find a new way to die

     Am                Em           E
 But killing is really merely scene changer

  Fmaj7/A    Am                            G
 All men are bored  with other men's lives

   C              Dm    F          G
 I listened and I heard music in a word,

     C              Dm             F     G
 and words when you played your guitar

     Dm               Em
 The noise that I was hearing

       G              Am
 was a million people cheering

 G                        C/G         G7       C/G
 And a child flew past me riding in a star

    Am        C              Dm           G
 We all know success when we all find our own dream

         Am      C               Dm       G
 And our love is enough to knock down any wall

         Am            C       Dm         G
 And the future's been seen as men try to realize

 Am         Am7/A         Dm G       Am  Am7
 The simple secret of the note in us all

    Am     C      F    G
 In us all...

   C              Dm    F          G
 I listened and I heard music in a word,

     C              Dm             F     G
 and words when you played your guitar

     Dm               Em
 The noise that I was hearing

       G              Am
 was a million people cheering

 G                        C/G         G7       C/G
 And a child flew past me riding in a star

    Dm                Am            Am7
 Today is the day when sound curdles mountains

 G                        Dm7        G
 Flowing and blowing each man it its wake

     Am                Em            E
 Destroying itself in the end with vibration

 Fmaj7/A Am                                     G
 There's nothing on earth its challenge can take

 C
 Excepting one note

       C          G    F        G
 Excepting one note, pure and easy

 C          G           F       G        C
 Playing so free like a breath, rippling by

 C
 Excepting one note

 C
 Excepting one note

C       C       C
 There once was a note, listen (pure and easy}
