Intro: C   Dm   Bb  Bb  (2x) 

C                            Dm 
Fall out of bed and catch a fading star 
Bb 
Fancy I woke up before my alarm 
            C                             Dm 
Rubbed my mind through my eyes, it's the best I can do 
             Bb 
Before its automatic habit of returning to you 
          C                             Dm 
Though I smile as it happens, almost as if it was magic 
       Bb 
It means there's a god somewhere and he's laughing 
         C                      Dm 
And I shuffle my slipperless toes to the kitchen 
       Bb (one strum) 
Still low to the ground, but high on living 



      C          Dm                  Bb 
And I know, I know, it's gonna be a good day 
 C         Dm            Bb 
Hello, hello, you beautiful thing 
       C                            Dm 
Waking up, I stretch my body and acknowledge them aches 
Bb 
It must be something I did yesterday 
          C                            Dm 
Pour a cup of liquid gold, because my engine's still cold 
Bb (one strum) 
But in a minute everything's gonna change 
      C          Dm                  Bb 
And I know, I know, it's gonna be a good day 
 C         Dm            Bb 
Hello, hello, you beautiful thing 
 C         Dm            Bb 
Hello, hello, you beautiful thing 
C                    Dm             Bb 
This is what I've been waiting for (This is what I've been waiting for) 
C                    Dm             Bb 
This is what I've been waiting for (This is what I've been waiting for)

        C                      Dm                       Bb 
Looking out from a cul-de-sac watching the bend of the earth 
Take the black of the night from the dirt 
       C                        Dm 
I can see from the depths of my readjusting eyes 
   Bb 
A reflection of yeses and that ever-changing sky 
           C                       Dm 
But why do bad dreams linger long after I wake? 
         Bb 
I don't need no scenes of violence and pain replayed 
       C                     Dm 
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 
      C          Dm                  Bb 
And I know, I know, it's gonna be a good day 
 C         Dm            Bb 
Hello, hello, you beautiful thing 
 C         Dm            Bb 
Hello, hello, you beautiful thing 
C                    Dm             Bb 
This is what I've been waiting for (This is what I've been waiting for) 
C                    Dm             Bb 
This is what I've been waiting for (This is what I've been waiting for) 
C                    Dm             Bb 
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) 
      C          Dm                  Bb 
And I know, I know, it's gonna be a good day 
 C         Dm            Bb (one strum) 
Hello, hello, you beautiful thing
