Lisa's Weekly Chord Chart

Here's a chord chart I made for a terrific, easy song to learn on this rainy Sunday night. No bar chords. It's a good thing. Something I just learnt: In a slash chord i.e., G/B, the right most chord, in this case "B" represents the base note in the chord. G over B is a G major chord with a B in the bass. To play it, just form a regular G chord shape and dampen or take off the G bass note (your fourth finger on the top string).

Lyrics:
My life is brilliant
My life is brilliant
My love is pure
I saw an angel
Of that I'm sure
She smiled at me on the subway
She was with another man
But I won't lose no sleep on that
'Cause I've got a plan

Chorus:
You're beautiful
You're beautiful
You're beautiful, it's true
I saw your face
In a crowded place
And I don't know what to do
'Cause I'll never be with you

Verse 2:
Yes, she caught my eye
As we walked on by
She could see from my face that I was
Fucking high
And I don't think that I'll see her again
But we shared a moment that will last to the end

Chorus:
Bridge:

Final Chorus:
You're beautiful
You're beautiful
You're beautiful, it's true
There must be an angel
With a smile on her face
When she thought up that I should be with you
But it's time to face the truth
I will never be with you
