The Prettiest Thing
The Avett Brothers/David Childers 

G
It was New Years day in the seaside bar
C                       G
There was a special on PBR
G                             D                G
The ocean roared outside the door
G
No one but us and some hardcore drinkers
C                   G
Lost in the stormy day
G
How blue was the blue of your eyes
D                     G
Against the skies of grey

D
Do you remember what we talked about, I
C                   G
Just remember your face
G                     
The prettiest thing that
D            G
I have ever seen

G
Well it must have been a wrong turn
C                       G
That took you to Cedar Falls
G                  D                 G
or is this Kansas City? Hell I dont know!
G
We just kept on rolling
C
It was to late to turn around
G
Ran out of road in Arizona

D
Do you remember what we talked about, I
C                   G
Just remember your face
G                     
The prettiest thing that
D            G
I have ever seen

G
Then you left me in that depot
C                       G
in gastonia with your mother
G                                        D        G
and what you still had left of self respect
G
At least you tried to tell me
C                         G
but that's when I was drinkin'
G
and I could not find the words
D            G
to win you back

D
Do you remember what we talked about, I
C                   G
Just remember your face
G                     
The prettiest thing that
D            G
I have ever seen


G
Well you change you mind about
G        C
I sure understand 
G                                 D
Years and miles are not what you deserve
G
I heard you got married
G                  C
and he's a decent man 
G                                        D
Although some say he's a little bit too reserved 

D
Do you remember what we talked about, I
C                   G
Just remember your face
G                     
The prettiest thing that
D            G
I have ever seen
