F [1 3 3 2 1 1]
Intro: G#A#mF#F# (x2)
G#A#m
Fall out of bed and catch a fading star
F#
Fancy I woke up before my alarm
G#A#m
Rubbed my mind through my eyes, it's the best I can do
F#
Before its automatic habit of returning to you
G#A#m
Though I smile as it happens, almost as if it was magic
F#
It means there's a god somewhere and he's laughing
G#A#m
And I shuffle my slipperless toes to the kitchen
Bb (one strum)
Still low to the ground, but high on living
Chorus:
G#A#mF#
And I know, I know, it's gonna be a good day
G#A#mF#
Hello, hello, you beautiful thing
G#A#m
Waking up, I stretch my body and acknowledge them aches
F#
It must be something I did yesterday
G#A#m
Pour a cup of liquid gold, because my engine's still cold
Bb (one strum)
But in a minute everything's gonna change
G#A#mF#
And I know, I know, it's gonna be a good day
G#A#mF#
Hello, hello, you beautiful thing
G#A#mF#
Hello, hello, you beautiful thing
G#A#mF#
This is what I've been waiting for (This is what I've been waiting for)
G#A#mF#
This is what I've been waiting for (This is what I've been waiting for)
Instrumental break (only change of chords):
FmC#FmC#G#A#mF#
Looking out from a cul-de-sac watching the bend of the earth
Take the black of the night from the dirt
G#A#m
I can see from the depths of my readjusting eyes
F#
A reflection of yeses and that ever-changing sky
G#A#m
But why do bad dreams linger long after I wake?
F#
I don't need no scenes of violence and pain replayed
G#A#m
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
G#A#mF#
And I know, I know, it's gonna be a good day
G#A#mF#
Hello, hello, you beautiful thing
G#A#mF#
Hello, hello, you beautiful thing
G#A#mF#
This is what I've been waiting for (This is what I've been waiting for)
G#A#mF#
This is what I've been waiting for (This is what I've been waiting for)
G#A#mF#
This is what I've been waiting for (This is what I've been waiting for)
G#A#mF# (one strum)
This is what I've been waiting for (Hello)
G#A#mF#
And I know, I know, it's gonna be a good day
G#A#mF# (one strum)
Hello, hello, you beautiful thing
