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