There once was a note, pure and easy
Playin' so free like a breath rippling by
The note is eternal, I hear it, it sees me
Forever we blend this, 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 on a star

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

Listened and I heard music in a word
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

Today is the day, the sound curdles mountains
Flowing, blowing each man in its wake
Destroying itself in the end with vibration
There's nothing on earth, it's challenge can take

Excepting one note
Excepting one note, pure and easy
Playing so free like a breath rippling by
Excepting one note, excepting one note

Listen, once was a note, listen
(Pure and easy)
Once was a note, listen
(Pure and easy)

Once was a note, listen
(Pure and easy)
Once was a note, listen
(Pure and easy)

Once was a note, listen
(Pure and easy)
Once was a note, listen
(Pure and easy)

Once was a note, listen
(Pure and easy)
Once was a note, listen
(Pure and easy)
