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

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.
