(Intro.)
|(D) / / / |(Em) / / / |(A) / / / |(D) / / / 
 
(Verse 1)
(D)Watching this sunset, yeah, man, it hit me
(Em)I�fm alive, but I ain't really been livin'
Maybe (A)flying through this life so fast I'm (Bm)missing (A) (G)
The (D)little things

(Verse 2)
Those (D)moments when you swear you feel the clock stop
And the (Em)answer seems as simple as a raindrop
'Cause you (A)realize that we're here on this (G)big rock
For the (D)little things

(Chorus)
Like an (G)old Merle Haggard song
(Em)Mama on the phone
(D)Midnight on a back porch
A slow (Bm) kiss on a dance floor
A tiny (G)diamond in your pocket
A (Em)baby that needs rocking (D/F#)back to (G)sleep
If you're asking (A)me
It's the (D)little things
 
(Verse 3)
The (D)secret to life, hey, we all wanna find it
But the (Em)more I look, the more that I'm reminded
(A)What we want is always right there, (G)hiding
(A) In all the (D)little things

(Chorus)
Homemade (G)ice cream in a bowl
(Em) A jacket when it's cold
(D)Fifth gear on a fast car
(Bm)New strings on a guitar
A tiny (G)diamond in your pocket
A (Em)baby that needs (D/F#)rocking back to (G)sleep
If you're asking me, (A) yeah, it's the (G)little things
 
(Solo)
|(Em) / / / |(D) / / / |(Bm) / /

(Outro.)
Take (G)everything and drop it
For a (Em)baby that needs (D/F#)rocking back to (G)sleep
I (Em)guess all I (D/F#)really want to say (G)
Don't let the (D/F#)big get in the way (Em) (A)
Of the (D)little things, mm, (Em)oh, (A)little things (D) - - - - -
