D
Times like these shake up the world
          E      A       D
When you can't find the pearls
     A                 Bm F#m
You once held in your hand

        D
How can all these things keep changing so fast?
           E            A       D
You can't count on anything to last
    A               Bm
I just don't understand
          A       D
How it can keep evolving?

Chorus:
           A
I'm in a trace in a smile in a photograph
When I'm down and we talk and you make me laugh
        F#m               E                A
That reminds me it's the little things in life
          E
Ooh That matter

Through the window I can see
Sky's stretched to eternity
It's so easy to feel so lost
All around there are people full of fear
Inside things they've seen it clear
But the noise comes at a cost
And you're lost in a bad dream

Chorus

If you were standing here
you'd take me in your arms
And hold me
And nobody can hold me closer
What I've been looking for all my life
Is right in front of me
It's how the sun bounces off a blade of grass
It's the memories that are in your past
Matchbox car with the wheel gone
Tub of ice cream with your favorite song

Chorus

C
If you were standing here you'd take me in your arms
F
And hold me
C                        F
And nobody can hold me closer
A#
What I've been looking for all my life
    G                 A
Is right in front of me

I'm in a trace in a smile in a photograph
When I'm down and we talk and you make me laugh
That reminds me it's the little things in life
That matter
That reminds me it's the little things
I'm gonna try
That reminds me it's the little things
That matter
That reminds me it's the little things
That matter

Now I know everything that I'm looking for
It's the sound of your key turning in the door
Now I know that it's the little things in life
Ooh that matter
Yes I know it's the little things in life
