  			G                           D 
It's the time and the place 
      Em           C 
Every line on your face 
         G                   D 
It's the truth and the lie 
        Em          C 
It's to live and to die 
G  D                   G 
Ooooh what a beautiful world 

G                     D 
It's a girl and a boy 
        Em             C  
And the first taste of joy 
        G             D 
It's an old photograph  
       Em             C  
Of two hearts torn in half 
G  D                   G 
Ooooh what a beautiful world 

C              G                    D            G     
We build out hopes up high, perchance to someday fly 
C        G                    D             
Across a clear blue sky to someplace new
