Verse 1:

A augmentedA       Asus4Asus4    A augmentedA       Asus4Asus4
I think it's sad and your friend, he does too
     E minorEm    G+G          A augmentedA
That the love of a lifetime escaped someone like you
   A augmentedA     Asus4Asus4    A augmentedA     Asus4Asus4
Your beautiful house is so empty with loss
     E minorEm  G+G   A augmentedA
And it's heavy as a teardrop

Chorus:

 Bm7Bm7 E MajorE    A augmentedA     D MajorD
But oh, was it beautiful when
Bm7Bm7     E MajorE      A augmentedA       D MajorD
You were a child and the world had no end?
    Bm7Bm7     E MajorE      A augmentedA       D MajorD Dsus2Dsus2 D5D5
And the stars were an ocean that bathed you in light
E MajorE    A augmentedA     Dadd2
Now you ponder your view
E MajorE    A augmentedA        Dadd2
And you think 'what's become of you?'
E MajorE    A augmentedA     Dadd2
All this love you never show
E MajorE    A augmentedA        D MajorD
All this love, it don't know

Verse:

  A augmentedA       Asus4Asus4     A augmentedA     Asus4Asus4
But I know there's beauty that's yet to be won if you
E minorEm     G+G       A augmentedA
Only have faith enough to hold on
   A augmentedA      Asus4Asus4     A augmentedA     Asus4Asus4
It's pure and magnificent, it's simple and true
     E minorEm   G+G        A augmentedA
And it's there, there with your name on

Chorus:

  Bm7Bm7 E MajorE    A augmentedA     D MajorD
And oh, was it beautiful when
Bm7Bm7     E MajorE      A augmentedA       D MajorD
She held your hand and the world had no end?
  Bm7Bm7     E MajorE       A augmentedA       D MajorD Dsus2Dsus2 D5D5
And you saw the children you'd have in her eyes
E MajorE     A augmentedA      Dadd2
While the hills are asleep
E MajorE     A augmentedA      Dadd2
While the sky sighs in sympathy
E MajorE     A augmentedA   Dadd2
You stay up all through the night
E MajorE     A augmentedA      D MajorD
Watch the clock write a symphony

Verse:

  A augmentedA    Asus4Asus4    A augmentedA       Asus4Asus4
And now a confession, I wrote this for you
    E minorEm      G+G      A augmentedA
But I guess that it speaks of my own life too

Chorus:

 Bm7Bm7 E MajorE      A augmentedA    D MajorD
'Cause oh, it was beautiful when
Bm7Bm7   E MajorE       A augmentedA      D MajorD
I was a child and the world had no end
    Bm7Bm7     E MajorE       A augmentedA      D MajorD Dsus2Dsus2 D5D5
And the stars were a blanket that bathed me in light
E MajorE      A augmentedA   Dadd2
I guess I'm doing ok
E MajorE      A augmentedA       Dadd2
Hey Ma, at least I'm not a criminal
E MajorE    A augmentedA      Dadd2
Still I think of what could have been
E MajorE      A augmentedA      D MajorD
I think of what's yet to come
