Lyrics

It’s a beau ti ful day.

(D6)(Beau ti ful (G6/9)day,

(D6)beau ti ful (A)day.) The heart is a bloom,

shoots up through the ston y (A)ground.

And there’s no room,

no,

no space to rent in this (A)town.

You’re out of luck,

and the (Dsus2)rea son that you (D)had (A)to care: the traf fic is stuck (A)oh, oh,

and you’re not (Dsus2)mov ing (D)an y where.

(A)It’s a beau ti ful day.

Hey,

sky (D)falls, (A)it feels like.

a beau ti ful day;

don’t (D)let it (D)get a (A)way.

You’re on the road

but you’ve got no des (A)ti na tion.

You’re in the mud,

in the maze of her im ag (A)i na tion.

You love this town,

(D6/9)ev en if that (A)does n’t ring true.

Oh, you’ve been all (D6/9)o ver,

and it’s (D5)been all o ver you.

It’s a beau ti ful day;

don’t (D)let it get a (A)way.

It’s a beau ti ful day.

(Gmaj13)Hoo, hoo, (D)hoo.

(F#m)Touch (G)me;

(D)take me to that (A)oth er place.

(F#m)Teach (G)me;

I (D)know I’m not a hope less case.

What you (F#m)don’t have, (G)you don’t need it now.

What you (D)don’t know, you can (A)feel it some how.

What you (F#m)don’t have, (G)you don’t need it now, don’t...

(D)need it (A)now.

It’s a beau ti ful day;

don’t (Dsus2)let it (D)get a (A)way.

It’s a beau ti ful day.

(Gmaj13)(Day.) It’s a beau ti ful day.

(Dsus2)(Beau ti (D)ful (A)day.)
