Great song. Play the whole thing with downstrokes on the 8th note. Pretty but this link to the video could help: http://youtube.com/watch?v=SssAPGaXic8 Also, you might try Dsus2 rather than D. Intro: A E F#m D (play twice) VERSE ONE: A E F#m D Life is beautiful A E F#m D We love until we die F# E F#m D F#m When you run into my arms we steal a perfect moment E F#m D Let the monsters see you smile, let them see you smilin' E F#m D Do I hold you too tightly? E F#m D When will the hurt kick in? CHORUS: A E D A Life is beautiful, but it's complicated and we barely make it A E D A E We don't need to understand. There are miracles, miracles. Instrumental: A E F#m D (once) VERSE TWO: A E F#m D Yeah life is beautiful A E F#m D Our hearts they beat and break F#m E F#m D F#m When you run away from harm will you run back into my arms? E F#m D Like you did when you were young? Will you come back to me? E F#m D I will hold you tightly E F#m D When the hurting kicks in CHORUS: A E D A Life is beautiful, but it's complicated and we barely make it A E D A E We don't need to understand. There are miracles, miracles. Instrumental: E E F#m D (play twice, like last part of verse) OUTRO: A E D A Stand where you are. We let all these moments pass us by. (pause) Instrumental: A E D F#m E A E D A It's amazing where I'm standing. There's a lot that we can give. A E D A This is ours just for the moment. There's a lot that we can give. End on A.
