Its The Little Things

Tom: G

G                      C
She said we could just sleep together
                   G
There'd be nothing wrong
              C                        G         D
We could just hold each other with our clothes on
          C                           G
I went to answer, I don't think we should
                   C              G        D
Then I heard a voice say, Yeah, I guess we could
              C                                   G            D
She kissed me lightly and said you know sometimes when you're down

[Chorus]
         C                  G
It's the little things that count
         C                  G
It's the little things that count
             C
It's the little things

[Verse 2]
C                                                G
She said it was too late, and I really shouldn't try to drive
                C                          G          D
She unbuttoned my shirt and whispered just close your eyes
                       C                                       G          D
Here, let me take your boots off, you know sometimes when your luck's run out

[Chorus]
         C                  G
It's the little things that count
         C                  G
It's the little things that count
         C
It's the little things

[Bridge]
Em              C             G      D
Her dress rode lightly as she walked
Em        C                G      D
Then she pulled the covers down

[Harmonica Solo]
C    G     C     G     C

[Verse 3]
C                                         G
I was so dry, she held a water glass to my lips
     C                        G     D
She brushed my cheek with her fingertips
                   C                        G
She said she had a boyfriend I reminded her of
    Em                       G
His hair was the same muddy brown,
                            D
she stuck her tongue in my mouth
