This song should really be played in the key of E to be plucked
the same as the recording, but this version will do well for
strummers.
Prettiest Eyes
by Beautiful South
transcribed by Rob Matson
D GLine One is the time
D A G D when you, you first stayed over at mine.
A G DAnd we drank our first bottle of wine.
A G D Then we cried.
GTwo, we're away,
D A G Dand we both, we both had nowhere to stay.
A G DWell the bus shelters always okay,
A G D when you're young.
BrIDGE:
D GNow you're older and I look at your face,
D GEvery wrinkle is so easy to place,
D BmAnd I only write them down just in case
AYou should die.
CBoRUS 1:
D BmJust take a look at these crows feet, just look
G ASitting on the prettiest eyes,
D BmSixty twenty-fifth of Decembers,
G AFifty-nine fourth of Julys.
G ANot through the age or the failure children,
D BmNot through the hate or despise.
D BmTake a good look at these crows feet,
A G DSitting on the prettiest eyes
VErSE 2:
Line Three, I forget,
But I think, I think it was our first ever bet,
And the horse we backed was short of a leg --
Never mind
Four, in a park,
And the things, the things that people do in the dark.
I could hear the faintest beat of your heart
Then we did.
Repeat BrIDGE
CBoRUS 2:
Just take a look at these crows feet, just look
Sitting on the prettiest eyes
60 25th of Decembers
59 4th of Julys
You can't have too many good times children
You can't have too many lines
Take a good look at these crows feet sitting on the prettiest eyes
D G DWell my eyes look like a map of the town
D G DAnd my teeth are either yellow or they're brown
G A D BmBut you'll never hear the crack of a frown when you are here
G A DNo you'll never hear the crack of a frown.
Of a frown...
