[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...
[Chorus]
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...
[Chorus]
G
I don't wanna miss it
Bm
I don't wanna look back someday and find

Keep me in the moment just like this

Before the beautiful things we love
G
Become the beautiful things we miss
[Bridge]
G
We don't get to rewind
Bm Em
There's no such thing as next time
C
Help me remember, help me remember
G
We don't get this back
Bm
They were right when they said "don't blink"
It all goes faster than you think
Em
Lord, help me remember
C
The beautiful things we miss
[Chorus]
G
I don't wanna miss it
Bm
I don't wanna look back someday and find
Em
Everything that really mattered
