Picture Perfect

Intro: 
C     Am   F 


 
               C 
When I picture perfect 
                   Em 
It ain't about the picket fence 
                        Am 
It's a house that needs work and 
                     F 
A couple cars with a couple dents 
 

 
               C 
When I picture perfect 
                    Em 
It's you holding me when I cry 
                            Am7 
In your George Strait faded T-shirt 
                    F 
You laughing when I spill my wine 
                             Am                      G 
Yeah sure it's nice when you see me at my best and I see you the same 
    F                          G 
But what's picturesque don't belong in a frame... 
 

 
              F 
It's when the dog tracks in mud 
           C 
When we're down on our luck 
           Am 
When those bills just pile up 
        G 
When we fight then make up 
             Am             E/Ab           C              D 
It's how you love me in the moments that a camera can't retouch 
   F 
We ain't the perfect picture 
         G                         C 
But when I picture perfect, that's us

   F          C 
We ain't no Picasso 
                 G/B 
A far cry from a fairytale 
                              Am 
But if there's one thing that I know 
                       F 
You'll be there when nobody will, 
F 
You'll love me till 
    Am 
The stars in the sky 
        G 
And the polaroids fade 
        F 
What'll be on my mind 
        G 
When we look back someday is 
 

 
    F                                 C 
The Pad Thai and the champagne on the couch after work 
         Am                             G 
When you say I look pretty when I think I look my worst 
             Am             E              C              D 
It's how you love me in the moments that a camera can't retouch 
   F 
We ain't the perfect picture 
         G                         F   C   Am   G 
But when I picture perfect, that's us 
 

 
               C 
When I picture perfect 
                  Em/B 
It's everything imperfect 
                Am 
Good love takes work and 
                     F 
I hope you know it's worth it... 
             G 
It's worth it 
 

 
         F 
When the dog tracks in mud 
           C 
When we're down on our luck 
           Am 
When those bills just pile up 
        G 
When we fight then make up 
             Am             E              C              D 
It's how you love me in the moments that a camera can't retouch
