4   -4    4   5    5   -5b  -6b 5
I thought I knew, the girl so well

-5b -5b -5b -5b -5b -5b 5   5
If she was sad I could-n't tell

4  -4     4   5     5   -5b   -6b 6
I missed the point, I missed the signs

-5b -5b -5b -5b   4    4    4   5
So if she's gone the fault is mine,

5 -5b -5b -6b  -6b -5b  -6 -6 -6b -6b  -6b
I know I know, a whole lot of lit-tle things

-6b -5b -5b -6b
And e-ven though

-5b 6    -6b   6  -5b 5 6
I could face them 1 by 1,

5     5     -5b 5   4
She would still be gone


CHORUS

7    7    -7  8
Her eyes are blue

6    6   -6b  7
Her hair is long

6   -7  -7    7   -7   7  -7 7   -7  7
Six-ty four, she was born in Ba-ton Rouge

6    6  -6b 6  6     7 -7  -6b
The ver-y song is " In My Life"

7  7  -7   8  -7  7   -7  -7
I mem-o-rized her ev-ry move

-6b 4   -4   5    -4   4    4    4
I knew her books, her car, her clothes

4  -4   4   6 -6 -6b  -5b 4   -4   4    4    -4
But I paid no at-ten-tion to what mat-tered most


VERSE 2


I never ask, 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
And all I have to show
Oh but she walked out the door
Her cold facts and nothing more


REPEAT CHORUS


CHORUS 2

7    7    -7   7
Her eyes are blue

6     6  -6b  7
Her hair is long

6    -7 -7    7  -7   7  -7  7  -7  7
Six-ty four she was born in Ba-ton Rouge

6    6   -7   -7
Her fath-ers tall

6    6   -7  -7
Her moth-ers gone

7     7    -7  7    7    7  -7  7
She moved out west when she was 2

6    6   -7    6
The way she laughed 

6    6   -7   7
The way she loved

6 -6b  7   6    6  -6b 7
Oh my God what did I do?
Play on a harmonica— watch which holes to blow & draw, with sound
