BEAUTIFUL DAY by U2

From the album "All That You Can't Leave Behind"

INTRO:

A Bm D G D D A

A Bm D G D D A

VERSE 1:

A Bm D G

The heart is a bloom

D A

Shoots up through the stony ground

A Bm D G

There's no room

D A

No space to rent in this town

A Bm D G

You're out of luck

D A

And the reason that you had to care

A Bm D G

The traffic is stuck

D A

And you're not moving anywhere

A Bmin D G

You thought you found a friend

D A

To take you out of this place

A Bm D G

Someone you could lend a hand

D A

In return for grace

CHORUS: (same chords)

It's a beautiful day

Sky falls you feel like

A beautiful day

Don't let it get away

VERSE 2:

You're on the road

But you've got no destination

You're in the mud

In the maze of her imagination

The love is done

Even if that doesn't ring true

You've been all over

And it's been all over you

CHORUS

F#m G

Touch me

D A

Take me to that other place

F#m G

Teach me

D A

I know I'm not a hopeless case

BRIDGE:

Em

See the world in green and blue

D

See time move right in front of you

Em G

See the canyons broken by cloud

D

See the tuna fleets clearing the sea out

Em G

See the Bedouin fires at night

D

See the oil fields at first light

Em G

And see the bird with a leaf in her mouth

D A

After the flood all the colors came out

CHORUS

Touch me

Take me to that other place

Reach me

I know I'm not a hopeless case

What you don't have you don't need it now

What you don't know you can feel it somehow

What you don't have you don't need it now

Don't need it now

It's a beautiful day

INTRO:

E E/G# A E/G# B C#m A E

VERSE:

E E/G# A E/G#

I'm not afraid of anything in this world

B C#m A E

There's nothing you can throw at me that I haven't already heard

E E/G# A E/G#

I'm just trying to find a decent melody

B C#m A E

A song that I can sing in my own company

C#m A

I never thought you were a fool

F#m(2nd verse: F#7) A

But darling, look at you

C#m A C#m

You gotta stand up straight, carry your own weight

B

These tears are going nowhere, baby

CHORUS:

E E/G# A E/G#

You've got to get yourself together

B C#m A E

You've got stuck in a moment and now you can't get out of it

E E/G# A E/G# G#/C C#m

Don't say that later will be better now you're stuck in a moment

A E

And you can't get out of it

VERSE 2:

I will not forsake, the colours that you bring

But the nights you filled with fireworks

They left you with nothing

I am still enchanted by the light you brought to me

I still listen through your ears, and through your eyes I can see

And you are such a fool

To worry like you do

I know it's tough, and you can never get enough

Of what you don't really need now... my oh my

CHORUS

BRIDGE:

F#m

I was unconscious, half asleep

A E

The water is warm till you discover how deep...

F#m

I wasn't jumping... for me it was a fall

A D B

It's a long way down to nothing at all

CHORUS

E E/G# A E/G#

And if the night runs over

B C#m A E

And if the day won't last

E E/G# A E/G#

And if our way should falter

G#/C C#m A E(1st x only)

Along the stony pass

(repeat)

It's just a moment

E

This time will pass

When I look at the world

Verse 5

I'm in the way of you

I can't see through smoke

I think of you and your holy book

When the rest of us choke

Outro: Asus4 A repeat

Tell me tell me what do you see

Tell me tell me whats gone on with me

WHEN I LOOK AT THE WORLD:

D A x3 D F#m E

New York

A G C G

[That's all]

song : Grace

album: All that you can't leave behind

band : U2

Someone else has to write tab, It wouldn't be correct if I did, and anyway I don't have

the effects and stuf,I just can give give the chords. Listening to the bassline I think

F should be a F/C

the whole song is some kind of 12-bar blues scheme in C, repeated over and over, but it's 2 X slower.

Listening to the bassline I think the F should maybe be a F/C, but it sounds good with

I guess you all know the chords C, F and G so I don't have to write them out...

oh, and it's just standard tuning.

intro :(and rest of the song)

| C | C | C | C | C | C | C | C |

| F | F | F | F | C | C | C | C |

| G | G | F | F | C | C | C | C |

C

Grace... she takes the blame she covers the shame

removes the stain it could be her name

F

Grace It's a name for a girl

C

It's also a thought that changed the world

G

and when she walks on the street

F

you can hear the strings

C

grace finds goodness in everything

C

grace... she's got the walk not on a wrapper on chalk

she's got the time to talk

F

she travels outside of karma, karma

C

she travels outside of karma

G

when she goes to work

F

you can hear the strings

C etc...

grace finds beauty in everything

grace... she carries a world on her hips

no champagne flute for her lips

no twirls or skips between her fingertips

She carries a pearl in perfect condition

what once was hers, what once was friction

what left a mark no longer stains

because grace makes beauty out of ugly things

grace finds beauty in everything

grace finds goodness in everything
