 C  C9  F  C  

[Verse 1]
 	          C                    C9 	 
I thought I knew, the girl so well
F 	  	   C
if she was sad, I couldn't tell
 	  	  	         C9
I missed the point, I missed the sings
F 	      	  	     C  	  
  so if she's gone, the fault is mine
   Dm 	  	  	  	           C
I know, I know, a whole lot of little things
       Dm  	  	  	             C 	 
And even though, I could face them one by one
 	  	  G7sus
She would still be gone

[Chorus]
G7 	  	    C
   Her eyes are blue
 	         C/E 	 
Her hair is long
 	  F

In '64
 	  C/G
she was born
     G               C
in Baton Rouge
                C/E
Her favorite song
 	      F
is "In My Life"
              C/G       G          Am
I memorized her every move
 	        C/G 	  	         Fmaj7
I knew her books, her car, her clothes
           C      C/E          F                 C/G    G 
 	 Csus
but I paid     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 2]
Her eyes are blue, her hair is long
In '64 she was born in Baton Rouge
Her favorite song is "In My Life"
I memorized her every move
I knew her books, her car, her clothes
But I paid no attention to what mattered most

[Chorus 3]
Her eyes are blue, her hair is long,
In '64 she was born in Baton 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?
