Intro: C | Dm7 | Bbmaj | Bbmaj  } 2 times

C                           Dm7
Fall out of bed and catch a fading star.
Bbmaj
Fancy, I woke up before my alarm.
       C                                   Dm7
Rub my mind through my eyes, it’s the best I can do
           Bbmaj
Before its automatic habit of returning to you,

          C                               Dm7
Though I smile when it happens; almost as if it was magic.
   Bbmaj
It means there’s a God somewhere, and he’s laughing.
      C                        Dm7
And I shuffle my slipperless toes to the kitchen,
      Bbmaj
Still low to the ground, but high on living.

Chorus:
           C         Dm7                   Bbmaj
     And I know, I know, it’s gonna be a good day.
        C       Dm7           Bbmaj
     Hello, hello, you beautiful thing.

       C                           Dm7
Waking up, I stretch my body and acknowledge some aches;
Bbmaj
Must be something I did yesterday.
           C                          Dm7
Pour a cup of liquid gold, because my engine’s still cold.
Bbmaj
But in a minute, everything’s gonna change,

Chorus:
              C         Dm7                   Bbmaj
     ’Cause I know, I know, it’s gonna be a good day.
        C       Dm7           Bbmaj
     Hello, hello, you beautiful thing.
        C       Dm7           Bbmaj
     Hello, hello, you beautiful thing.

   C                   Dm7
   This is what I’ve been waiting for.
    Bbmaj
   (This is what I’ve been waiting for.)
   C                      Dm7
   This is what I’ve been waiting for.
    Bbmaj
   (This is what I’ve been waiting for.)

Instrumental: Am | Am | F | Fmaj
              Am | Am | Bbmaj9 | Bbmaj9

        C                      Dm7                      Bbmaj
Looking out from a cul-de-sac, watching the bend of the earth
Take the black of the night from the dirt.
      C                         Dm7
I can see from the depths of my readjusting eyes
    Bbmaj
A reflection of yesses in that ever-changing sky.

           C                        Dm7
But why do bad dreams linger long after I awake?
        Bbmaj
I don’t need no scenes of violence or pain replayed.
      C                      Dm7
And I feel quite foolish sometimes when I pray,
       Bbmaj
But my thoughts are all I’ve got, so I try to make them brave.

Chorus:
           C         Dm7                   Bbmaj
     And I know, I know, it’s gonna be a good day.
        C       Dm7           Bbmaj
     Hello, hello, you beautiful thing.
        C       Dm7           Bbmaj
     Hello, hello, you beautiful thing.

       C                   Dm7
   Oh, this is what I’ve been waiting for.
    Bbmaj
   (This is what I’ve been waiting for.)
       C                      Dm7
   Oh, this is what I’ve been waiting for.
    Bbmaj
   (This is what I’ve been waiting for.)
       C                   Dm7
   Oh, this is what I’ve been waiting for.
    Bbmaj
   (This is what I’ve been waiting for.)
       C                      Dm7       Bbmaj9
   Oh, this is what I’ve been waiting for
   (Hello.)

Chorus:
           C         Dm7                   Bbmaj
     And I know, I know, it’s gonna be a good day.
        C       Dm7           Bbmaj
     Hello, hello, you beautiful thing…
