Corrinne May – Beautiful Life chords

Corrinne May
Beautiful Life (from the album Crooked Lines; I bought her CD ^^)

Standard tuning
(If you want easier chords, 
Capo 1st fret and F#, G#, A#m and C# become F, G, Am and C respectively)

Verse 1:
          F#          G#It's in living every moment
     A#m              C#Like it could be our last
         F#          G#For our hearts are restless
           A#m             C#Till they rest in love's caress

And the moments we remember
They interweave our hearts
Like a tapestry surrounding us
That we forget to touch

Bridge:
             F#            G#It's why we wake up every morning
             A#m               C#It's why we seek each other's smile
             F#                 G#It's why we know that it's all worth it
             A#m                 C#(hold)It's why we hold on, we make the sacrifice

Chorus 1:
             F#        G#It's in the eyes of a child
       A#m              C#As you hold her in your arms
          F#             G#        A#m     C#And your heart starts to beat once again
          F#         G#And your world is reborn
        A#m             C#In the freshness of her song
F#(hold)       G#(hold)Smile, it's a beautiful life

F# G# A#m C# (x2)

Verse 2 (repeat the chord pattern):
It's in the hope of the poor man
As he struggles to make ends meet
It's in the laughter of his children
As they play in the street

Don't need a million dollars
To raise a happy child
You just need a pair of loving arms
And thhe time to make her smile

Bridge

Chorus 2:
             F#         G#It's in the tears of a friend
        A#m           C#As you finally make amends
          F#             G#           A#m   C#And your soul starts to breathe once again
          F#           G#And the weight of the world
       A#m           C#Falls away with one word
F#(hold)        G#(hold)Smile, it's a beautiful life

F# G# A#m C# (x2)

F#    G#Oh woah Oh...
A#m    C#Oh woah oh...
F#     G#(strum twice and hold)
Oh woah

Chorus 3:
             F#          G#It's in the touch of her lips
        A#m           C#As she leans in for a kiss
          F#              G#          A#m   C#And your world starts to spin once again
         F#           G#And two hearts become one
      A#m      C#As a dream is begun
F#(hold)        G#(hold)Smile, it's a beautiful life

F# G# A#m       
       C#       F#    G# A#mIt's a beautiful life
       C#       F#    G# A#mIt's a beautiful life
       C#       F#    G# A#m (fade out)It's a beautiful life

fret and use F, G, Am and C instead. Cheers!~
