Paul Simon nació en Newark (New Jersey) el 13 de octubre de 1941.
A los 9 años coincidió en la escuela con Art Garfunkel, con el que formaría uno de los dúos musicales más importantes de la historia. En 1957 graban un sencillo, con el nombre de Tom y Jerry (Paul Simon era Jerry), titulado "Hey, Schoolgirl!" y consiguieron colocarse entre los 100 primeros de la lista Billboard. Pero no lograron reeditar este éxito y el dúo se deshizo.
Paul Simon prosigue su carrera más adelante en solitario bajo el seudónimo de Jerry Landis.

American Tune, by paul simon Chords By Reneh "Sheik" Karamians
CFCGEAmEAm Many's the time I've been mistaken and many times confused CFCGGEAmEAm Yes I've often felt forsaken and certainly misused CFGFCFCE Aw, but I'm alright, I'm alright, I'm just weary to my bones FGCDG Still you don't expect to be bright and bon vivant CFCGEAmCGC So far away from home, so far away from home
CFCGE I don't know a soul who's not been battered AmEAm don't have a friend that's feels at ease CFCGEAmEAm I don't know a dream that's not been shattered or driven to it's knees CFGFCFCE Aw, but it's alright, it's alright for we lived so well so long FGCDG Still when I think of the road we're travelin' on CFCGEAmCGC I wonder what's gone wrong, I can't help but wonder what's gone wrong
C And I dreamed I was dying... GEAm I dreamed that my soul rose unexpectedly GCAmCG And looking back down on me smiled reassuringly C And I dreamed I was flying....
AmCGEAm And high up above my eyes could clearly see CGAmCG The Statue of Liberty - sailing away to sea C And I dreamed I was flying....
CFCG For we come on the ship they call Mayflower AmEAm We come on the ship that sailed the moon CFCGEAmEAm We come in the ages most uncertain hours and sing an American Tune CFGFCFCAm Aw, but it's alright, it's alright you can't be forever blessed FGCDG Still tomorrow's gonna be another working day CFCGEAmCGC And I'm trying to get some rest, that's all I'm trying to get some rest
