Intro: C Dm Bb Bb (x2)
CDm
Fall out of bed and catch a fading star
Bb
Fancy I woke up before my alarm
CDm
Rubbed my mind through my eyes, it's the best I can do
Bb
Before its automatic habit of returning to you
CDm
Though I smile as it happens, almost as if it was magic
Bb
It means there's a god somewhere and he's laughing
CDm
And I shuffle my slipperless toes to the kitchen
Bb (one strum)
Still low to the ground, but high on living
Chorus:
CDmBb
And I know, I know, it's gonna be a good day
CDmBb
Hello, hello, you beautiful thing
CDm
Waking up, I stretch my body and acknowledge them aches
Bb
It must be something I did yesterday
CDm
Pour a cup of liquid gold, because my engine's still cold
Bb (one strum)
But in a minute everything's gonna change
CDmBb
And I know, I know, it's gonna be a good day
CDmBb
Hello, hello, you beautiful thing
CDmBb
Hello, hello, you beautiful thing
CDmBb
This is what I've been waiting for (This is what I've been waiting for)
CDmBb
This is what I've been waiting for (This is what I've been waiting for)
Instrumental break (only change of chords):
AmFAmFCDmBb
Looking out from a cul-de-sac watching the bend of the earth
Take the black of the night from the dirt
CDm
I can see from the depths of my readjusting eyes
Bb
A reflection of yeses and that ever-changing sky
CDm
But why do bad dreams linger long after I wake?
Bb
I don't need no scenes of violence and pain replayed
CDm
And I feel quite foolish sometimes when I pray
Bb (one strum)
But my thoughts are all I got so I try to make them brave
CDmBb
And I know, I know, it's gonna be a good day
CDmBb
Hello, hello, you beautiful thing
CDmBb
Hello, hello, you beautiful thing
CDmBb
This is what I've been waiting for (This is what I've been waiting for)
CDmBb
This is what I've been waiting for (This is what I've been waiting for)
CDmBb
This is what I've been waiting for (This is what I've been waiting for)
C Dm Bb (one strum)
This is what I've been waiting for (Hello)
CDmBb
And I know, I know, it's gonna be a good day
C Dm Bb (one strum)
Hello, hello, you beautiful thing
