"Pure And Easy (New Version 1999)" lyrics - PETE TOWNSHEND

There once was a note pure and easy
Playing so free like a breathe rippling by
The note is eternal
I hear it it sees me
Forever we blend as forever we die

I listened and I heard music in a word
And words when you played your guitar
The noise that I was hearing was a million people cheering
And a child flew past me riding in a star

As people assemble
Civilization is trying to find a new way to die
But killing is really merely scene changer
All men are bored with other men's lives

I listened and I heard music in a word
And words when you played your guitar
The noise that I was hearing was a million people cheering
And a child flew past me riding in a star

Gas on the hillside
Oil in the tea cup
Watch all the chords of life lose their joy
Distortion becomes somehow pure in its wildness
The note that began all can also destroy

We all know success, when we all find our own dream
And our love is enough to knock down any wall
And the future's been seen, as men try to realize
The simple secret of the note in us all

In us all

In us all......... yea yea, yea

Left with one note

There once was a note pure and easy
Playing so free like a breathe rippling by

There once was a note listen (pure and easy)
There once was a note listen (pure and easy)
[etc].
