 Verse 1: (0:23)

		  
What a beautiful face
		      Cadd9sus4 
I have found in this place
		  
That is circling all round the sun 
		   
What a beautiful dream
			  Cadd9sus4 
That could flash on the screen 
		 		      
In a blink of an eye and be gone from me
       
Soft and sweet 
	Cadd9sus4	   
Let me hold it close and keep it here 
            Cadd9sus4   
with me 


 Verse 2: (0:52)

		     
And one day we will die
		     Cadd9sus4		  
And our ashes will fly from the aeroplane over the sea 
		    
But for now we are young
		   Cadd9sus4
Let us lay in the sun
		  			
And count every beautiful thing we can see 
       
Love to be
	Cadd9sus4	 
In the arms of all I'm keeping here 
            Cadd9sus4   
with me

 Verse 3: (1:49)

		
What a curious life
		    Cadd9sus4
we have found here tonight 
		    
There is music that sounds from the street 
			  
There are lights in the clouds 
		   Cadd9sus4
Anna's ghost all around 
		   				
Hear her voice as it's rolling and ringing through me 
       
Soft and sweet 
	 Cadd9sus4	    
How the notes all bend and reach above
         Cadd9sus4   
the trees 


 (2:18)

Em7sus2		    
Now how I remember you 
			      
How I would push my fingers through
				   
Your mouth to make those muscles move
				     Em7sus2 
That made your voice so smooth and sweet
				  
And now we keep where we don't know
			       
All secrets sleep in winter clothes
			    
With one you loved so long ago 
			    (Em7sus2)
Now he don't even know his name

 Verse 4: (3:01)

		  
What a beautiful face
		      Cadd9sus4 
I have found in this place 
		 
That is circling all round the sun 
			
And when we meet on a cloud
		     Cadd9sus4 
I'll be laughing out loud 
		  		  
I'll be laughing with everyone I see
		     Cadd9sus4	   
Can't believe how strange it is to be anything 
        Cadd9sus4    
at all      (oooh oooh)
