What Mattered Most Ty Herndon
INTRO C C9 F C
I thought I knew, [C]the girl so well[C9]
[F]if she was sad, I c[C]ouldn't tell
I missed the point, I missed the [C9]sings
[F] so if she's gone, the fault[C] is mine
I k[Dm]now, I know, a whole lot of little thing[C]s
and eve[Dm]n though, I could face them one by one[C]
she would still be[G7sus] gone
Chorus
[G7] Her eyes are blue[C]
her hair is long[C/E]
sixty four[F]
she was bo[C/G]rn
in Bat[G]ton rouge[C]
the very song[C/E]
is in my life[F]
I meorized her[C/G] ev'ry mov[G]e[Am]
I knew her books[C/G], her car, her clothes[Fmaj7]
[C] [C/E] [F] [C/G] [G]
but I pai[Csus]d, no attention to what mattered most
Verse 2
I never asked, she never said
And when she cried I turned my head
She dreamed her dreams behind closed doors
That made them easy to ignore
And I know, I know, I missed the forest for the trees
Now all I have to show
Or would she walk out the door?
The cold facts and nothin' more
Chorus
Chorus 2
Her eyes are blue, her hair is long, sixy four
she was born, in Batton Rouge,
Her father's tall, her mother's gone,
She moved out when she was two,
The way she laughed, the way she loved,
Oh my God what did I do?
