Song: The Beauty of You
By:   Jimmy LaFave

{ capo fret 2 }

[intro:]   2 x [ G | Bm | C | D  ]
 
[Verse 1]
G            Bm                       C    D
  As I was walking through the forest
G          Bm                  C   D
  Looking up at the Milky Way
G          Bm               C   D
  Always taken by the magic
                 G      Bm   C   D
Of every single day
 
[Verse 2]
G            Bm                C        D
  Tall pine trees were all around me
G               Bm            C       D
  Snow capped mountains up above
G         Bm                    C     D
  And my heart was full of gladness   
                      G     Bm   C     D
Of all the things I love
 
[chorus:]
C              D
  When I wake up
         G    G/F#    Em    D     {bass walk down G F# E D}
In the middle of the night
C             D
  Choose to question
          G     G/F#       Em   D   {bass walk down G F# E D}
What is wrong and what is right
C              D
  I find my answer
             G   G/F#  Em  D   {bass walk down G F# E D}
          It’s always true
           C      {two bars of C}     D  {two bars of D}
The path leads to
                  G    Bm   C    D
To the beauty of you
                  G    Bm   C    D
   The beauty of you
  
[verse: 3]
G          Bm                      C     D
  In this world that is full of wonder
G       Bm                  C     D
  As we circle around the sun
G        Bm                C     D
  Every moment it is measured
                        G       Bm   C    D
And not just the treasured ones
 

[chorus:]
C              D
  When I wake up
         G    G/F#    Em    D     {bass walk down G F# E D}
In the middle of the night
C             D
  Choose to question
          G     G/F#       Em   D   {bass walk down G F# E D}
What is wrong and what is right
C              D
  I find my answer
             G   G/F#  Em  D   {bass walk down G F# E D}
          It’s always true
           C      {two bars of C}     D  {two bars of D}
The path leads to
                  G    Bm   C    D
To the beauty of you
                  G    Bm   C    D
Oh the beauty of you
