Pretty Eyes - Silver Jews The Natural Bridge (1996) G D Everybody wants perspective from a hill Am G G/F# but everybody's wants can't make it past the window sill G I can see you in yourt room at night D the pictures on your walls Am little forest scenes and high school halloweens G but they don't come to you G/F# they don't come to you at all G All houses dream in blueprints D our house dreams so hard Am Outside you can see my shoeprints G G/F# I've been dreaming in your yard E Am One of these days these days will end E Am Thru the kitchen window the light will bend E Am You'll be carving a pumpkin with a knife E when someone at the table says G G/F# "that's not what I call a life!" [ Tab from: http://www.guitaretab.com/s/silver-jews/388340.html ] G D The elephants are so ashamed of their size Am G G/F# hosing down I tell them "you got pretty eyes" G D Out in the backyard I used to make like I was a cowboy Am G G/F# I'd set my dog before a hoop and say "now boy, now boy!" E When the governer's heart fails Am the state bird falls from its branch E Am Icicles on hell's higher hills E Am Meanwhile back home at the ranch E I still get up early in the morning G G/F# and I never knew a better place G D I believe the stars are the headlights of angels Am driving from heaven to save us to save us Won't you look at the sky? G G/F# They're driving from heaven into our eyes G D and though final words are so hard to devise Am G G/F# I promise that I'll always remember your pretty eyes your pretty eyes |
