We We're Beautiful chords by Belle And Sebastian

Intro:
 C  Bm  A

Verse 1:
                       Em                                                  G/D
I was blank as I could be, hearing voices telling me, ?Walk away from everything?
                         Em                                                 G/D   C  Bm
But where was I meant to go, far away from those I know, to some desolate below
                     Em                                                            G/D
We were in the uber scene, where they grind the coffee bean, where the women are oblique
                        Em                                                          G          C  Bm  A
And the boys are paper thin, ragged beards upon their chin, we were on the outside looking in

Pre-Chorus
Am              Bm           Am               Em
Rise above the present day, rise above the popular melee
Am            Bm           C              Dm
I see you the way you are, I see you the star

         F     G     Am   C         G
We were beautiful before this went down
         F     G     Am       C           G
We were beautiful before the years came, turned it upside down
         F     G     Am   C      G
We were beautiful before we got wise
         F     G        Am      C       Bm         A
We were beautiful with sky and blanket laying low

Verse 2:
                    Em                                         G/D
I am hanging on the line, I m on duty all the time, I am your Samaritan on call
                       Em                                                     G/D
I could try my best to heal, all the emptiness you feel, in the giving I will be alive
                             Em                                                  G/D
We were wrapped around our roots, nothing on except our boots, we were intimate around the waist
                      Em                                                            G/D
We were settling our scores, we were healing over sores, we were living out the pleasure that we lost


         F     G     Am   C         G
We were beautiful before this went down
         F     G     Am       C           G
We were beautiful before the years came, turned it upside down
         F     G       Am     C        G
We were beautiful for all of time and space
        F       G      Am      C      G
I will tell it to the sun and I will tell it to

Bridge:
F                     G                               Am                   F
If you listen to the night, we can heard the madmen fight, hear the foxes making out
F                   G                                 C             Bb
But the people all immune, sleeping silent in their rooms, growing bodies with their sleep
              Ab                                   F         G   Am C G
Making plans inside their heads, making love to shallow friends


         F     G     Am   C         G
We were beautiful before this went down
         F     G     Am       C           G
We were beautiful before the years came, turned it upside down
         F     G     Am   C       G
We were beautiful before we felt wise
         F     G        Am      C       Bm         A
We were beautiful with sky and blanket fading out

         F     G     Am   C         G
We were beautiful before this went down
         F     G     Am       C           G
We were beautiful before the years came, turned it upside down
         F     G       Am     C        G
We were beautiful for all of time and space
        F       G      Am      C      G
I will tell it to the sun and I will tell it to your face
