    G (2)                      G/F# (2)     Em7 (2)     Cadd9 (2)

      My life is brilliant.

    G (2)                    G/F# (2)    

      My life is brilliant.  My love is pure. 

    Em7 (2)           Cadd9 (2)

    I saw an angel.  Of that I'm sure.

               G (2)                                                G/F# (2)    

    She smiled at me on the subway.  She was with another man.

         Em7 (4)                                                

    But I won't lose no sleep on that, 'cause I've got a plan.

     

    Chorus:

    Cadd9           Dsus4/F#   G (2)

         You're beautiful.                 You're beautiful.

    Cadd9                Dsus4/F#   G (2)

         You're beautiful, it's true.

        Cadd9        Dsus4/F#    G (½)    Dsus4/F# (½)   Em7 (2)

    I saw your face in a           crowded              place,

             Cadd9              Dsus4/F#    Em7 (2)

    And I don't know what to do.

                      Cadd9  Dsus4/F#   

    'Cause I'll never be   with you.

     

    / G - - - / - - - - / G/F# - - - / - - - - / Em7 - - - / - - - - / Cadd9 - - - / - - - - /

     

                          G (2)                   G/F# (2)    

    Yes, she caught my eye as we walked on by

                     Em7 (2)                            Cadd9 (2)

    She could see from my face that I was fucking high

            G (2)                        G/F# (2)    

    And I don't think that I'll see her again

           Em7 (4)                                               

    But we shared a moment that will last till the end

     

    Interlude (with la-de-da's):

    / G - - - / - - - -  /

    / Cadd9 - - - / Em7 - - - / Cadd9 - - - / Em7 - - - /

    / Cadd9 - - - / Em7 - - - / A7sus4 - - - / Dsus4/F# - - - /

     

     

     

     

     

     

    Outro:

    Cadd9           Dsus4/F#   G (2)

         You're beautiful.                 You're beautiful.

    Cadd9                Dsus4/F#   G (2)

         You're beautiful, it's true.

                Cadd9            Dsus4/F#    G (½)    Dsus4/F# (½)   Em7 (2)

    There must be an angel with a        smile on her  face,

                     Cadd9                                          Dsus4/F#    G (½)    Dsus4/F# (½)   Em7 (2)

    When she thought up that I should be with you.

                Cadd9       Dsus4/F#    Em7 (4)

    But it's time to face the truth

              Cadd9     Dsus4/F#    G (hold)

    I will never be       with you.
