Chords are accurate, 3/4 time but Simone’s vocal cadence/syncopation is wonderfully trickyhttp://www.cmj.com/news/track-premiere-simone-whites-big-dreams-and-headlines

[[verse i]]
If you stay a while I promise I’ll find a happy song to sing – La dee da
And it’s dark, but I can see in the dark and you’re smiling
Oooooh, don’t go yet, don’t be upset – it’s a sweet evening
And we’ll go inside and light a fire and have a laugh and have a cry
It’s the little things that add up to life
[(C)]10,000 moments of paradise
Lost between the big dreams and the headlines
[[verse ii]]
I can’t help you quit the blues
The lonely and the heartache and the bad bad news
Oooooh you still gotta pay the rent
And all those years – where they went
I don’t care you’ve been, how you made your enemies and lost your friends
Or how’d you missed those lucky breaks and how – how everything is just a big mistake
’cause you’ve come all this way, I know it’s hard – won’t you stay
All I can promise you is that tomorrow – it’s a brand new day
