Beautiful tab by Joydrop

Group: Joydrop
Song: Beautiful

TABbed by Ken Taylor (taylok2@rpi.edu)
(in my typical too-much-information fashion :)

Chords relative to capo 1st fret
(everything's actually one half step up from what's written)

(chord arrangement with lyrics appears at end)

Intro/Verse chords:
Am7  - x02010
Cadd11  - xx3010
C/G  - 3x2010
Cadd11/G - 3x3010
D7sus2  - xx0210
E  - 022100

Strumming pattern is something like this (play
along with album to figure it out):

(intro repeats this measure 4x)
(verse does it 2x)
Am7               Cadd11
|------------0--0------0--0-|
|------------1--1----1-1--1-|
|--------0---0-------0-0----|
|--------2--------3--3------|
|--0--0---------------------|
|---------------------------|

C/G    Cadd11   (2x)
|------------0--0------0--0-|
|------------1--1----1-1--1-|
|--------0---0-------0-0----|
|--------2--------3--3------|
|---------------------------|
|--3--3---------------------|

D7sus2
|--------0---0--0----0----|--------0---0--1----1-0---|
|--------1---1--1----1----|--------1---1--1----1-----|
|-----2--2---2--2----2----|--------2---2--2----2-----|
|--0--------------0-------|--0--0-----------0--------|
|-------------------------|--------------------------|
|-------------------------|--------------------------|

E
(just kinda strummed similar to previous patterns
 ... listen to album)


pre chorus:
chords just kinda strummed ... listen to album
Am  - x02210
G/B  - x2x033
Cadd9  - x32033
Dsus2  - x00230
F  - 133211
E  - 022100

Chorus pattern:
(actually electric guitar just plays one note
 instead of chords ... but chords sound
 better on an acoustic)

      A5 E5 A5B5        F5       E5        E5        B5
|--------------------------|----------------------------|
|--------------------------|----------------------------|
|-----2-----2/4~~~~-4------|----------------------------|
|-----2--2--2/4~~~~-4---3--|--3--2--2----7/9-9-9-9-9-4--|
|-(0)-0--2--0/2~~~~-2-0-3--|--3--2--2----5/7-7-7-7-7-2--|
|--------0--------------1--|--1--0--0-------------------|

usually plays 1 3/4 times (silence the last 2 beats)
(ie ends on second E5)


the bridge chords:
Asus2  - x02200 (this one loud)
Asus2/G  - 3x2200 (the rest quiet)
F  - 133211
E  - 022100
Dsus2  - x00230
E  - 022100


The last pre-chorus is different,
it goes
Am G/B Cadd9 Dsus2 then:
F  - 133211
Ffun  - 133200 (it's actually FM7add11 ...
G  - 355433  but Ffun is shorter :)
G6  - 355400
F  - 133211
Ffun  - 133200
G  - 355433
E  - 022100
F  - 133211
Ffun  - 133200
E  - 022100

again, listen to album to get it :)


Before the last chorus, there's a cool descending thing
that I think is actually done mostly on the bass, but
you can emulate it if you want to when playing the song
on an acoustic:

      E5    D5    C5    B5    A#5
|--------------------------------|
|--------------------------------|
|--------------------------------|
|-----9-----7-----5-----4-----3--|
|-----7-0-0-5-0-0-3-0-0-2-0-0-1--|
|--0-----------------------------|


Last chorus repeats Chorus Pattern 5 times, then:

End Pattern:
      A5 E5 A5B5        F5

|-----2-----2/4~~~~-4------|
|-----2--2--2/4~~~~-4---3--|
|--0--0--2--0/2~~~~-2-0-3--|
|--------0--------------1--|

       E5     C5     D5     A
