           F#
A beat-up gut string tucked behind some TVs
        B             F#
Like a pawn shop castaway
            F#
I started strummin' little nothings
           B                      F#
I fell in love with the way it played

Chorus:
D#m            B                    F#
Put aside the way that some things shimmer
 D#m             B                 F#
Beauty's in the heart and not the eye
 D#m           B               F#
Rust is just another shade of silver
C#         B              F#  B
Not all treasure has to shine

Dedication, a hammer, and some patience
Daddy fixed that fixer up
It ain't a palace, but the thing about it
Is what it's been to all of us

Chorus:
Put aside the way that some things shimmer
Beauty's in the heart and not the eye
Dust has always been our kind of glitter
Not all treasure has to shine

        C#
When I told you that I wished I could've
 B            F#              B
Put a bigger diamond on your band
                 C#
You said, "Your love's worth more than
 B                  F#              B
Any stone you could ever put on my hand"

Chorus:
Put aside the way that some things shimmer
Beauty's in the heart and not the eye
There's riches in our simple world together
Not all treasure has to shine
Mm, not all treasure has to shine
Mm
