Pretty Eyes chords by Silver Jews

• Difficulty: Intermediate

Verse 1:
G                 D/A
   Everybody wants   perspective from a hill
Am                       G               Gmaj9/F#
   But everybody's wants   can't make it past a window sill
G                                       D/A
   I can see you in your room at night, pictures on your walls
Am
Little forest scenes and high school Halloweens




               G                       Gmaj9/F#
But they don't come to you, they don't come to you at all
G                                 D/A
   All houses dream in blueprints
our houses dream so hard
Am
   Outside, you can see my shoeprints
          G                 Gmaj9/F#
I've been   dreaming in your yard

Chorus:
E                                      Am
   One of these days, these days will end
E                          Am
   The kitchen window, the light will bend
E                                       Am
   You'll be carving a pumpkin with a knife
E                                  G                 Gmaj9/F#
   When someone at the table says "that's not what I call a life!"

Verse 2:
G                        D/A
   The elephants are so ashamed of their size
Am                                     G      Gmaj9/F#
Hosing them down
I tell 'em, "You got pretty eyes"
G                                 D/A
   Out in the backyard
I used to make like I was a cowboy
    Am                                 G        Gmaj9/F#
I'd set my dog before a hoop and say, "Now boy, now boy!"

Chorus:
E                                       Am
   When the governor's heart fails, the state bird falls from its branch
E                              Am
   Icicles on hell's higher hills
E                               Am
   Meanwhile, back home at the ranch
E                                            G            Gmaj9/F#
   I still get up early in the morning and I never knew a better place

Verse 3:
G                                             D/A
   I believe that stars are the headlights of angels
                                         Am
Driving from heaven to save us, to save us, look in the sky
        G                   Gmaj9/F#
They're driving from heaven into our eyes
G                                    D/A
   And final words are so hard to devise
Am                                                 G                 Gmaj9/F#
   I promise that I'll always remember your pretty eyes, your pretty eyes
