Yes indeed.
Forget about the reasons and the treasons we are seeking
Forget about the notion that our emotions can be swept away, kept at bay
Forget about being guilty, we are innocent instead
For soon we will all find our lives swept away

yeah simon is perfect for some chillmode playing and singing, usually pretty easy to play and most people know quite a few of his songs. A good fingerpicking one to learn by him is the intro to "Hearts and Bones"
