Tift Merritt - Plainest Thing
C G
I found a mark, where the ink bled through
Dm G
Under a song I was writing for you
C G
Crumbled up in a drawer, stained with blue
Dm G
Quiet and easy, what I wanted to prove
CHORUS:
C F
The plainest thing, the plainest thing
Dm F
I walk right by it
C
It's just the plainest thing
G
Sun hits the floor, same as shadows will
Dm G
So I sat in the light, and I stayed very still
C G
Heat on my skin, bright in my face
Dm G
I didn't have any questions, I didn't feel out of place
CHORUS:
C F
The plainest thing, the plainest thing
Dm F
I walk right by it
C
It's just the plainest thing
INSTRUMENTAL:: C G C F C
G
I don't know how it works, I don't know how to say
Dm
I was thinking about us
G
It's the plainest thing
CHORUS:
C F
The plainest thing, the plainest thing
Dm F
I walk right by it
C
It's just the plainest thing
Dm F
I forgot about it
C
It was just the plainest thing
