Intro: G Bm Em C
verse 1
G
She puts on her makeup
Bm Em
And the last dress she remembers that turned his head
Am C
That time he said, "You look beautiful"
G
At six, the front door opens
Bm
And he doesn't even notice
Em
Kisses her cheek
C
"Baby, when do we eat? I'm starving"
Pre-Chorus
D Am
Oh, the beautiful things we miss...
G
I don't wanna miss it
Bm
I don't wanna look back someday and find
Em
Everything that really mattered
C
Was right in front of me this whole time
G
Open up my eyes, Lord
Bm Em
Keep me in the moment just like this
C
Before the beautiful things we love
G
Become the beautiful things we miss
verse 2
G
She hides out in her headphones
Bm
Texting on her cell phone
Em C
Daddy's girl built a world behind her bedroom door
G
While he was working hard and providing
Bm
Bigger houses still get divided
Em C
Just yesterday she was on his shoulders but today she's older
Why do we get older?
Pre-Chorus
D Am C
Oh, the beautiful things we miss...

I don't wanna miss it

I don't wanna look back someday and find

Everything that really mattered

Open up my eyes, Lord

Before the beautiful things we love

There's no such thing as next time

They were right when they said "don't blink"
It all goes faster than you think

Lord, help me remember

The beautiful things we miss
