Intro: G Em C D
GEm
What a beautiful face
C
I have found in this place
D
That is circling all round the sun
GEm
What a beautiful dream
C
That could flash on the screen
DG
In a blink of an eye and be gone from me
Em
Soft and sweet
CDGDm
Let me hold it close and keep it here with me
Enter singing saw
GEm
And one day we will die
CD
And our ashes will fly from the aeroplane over the sea
GEm
But for now we are young
C
Let us lay in the sun
DG
And count every beautiful thing we can see
Em
Love to be
CDGDm
In the arms of all I'm keeping here with me
Em C G D (x2 over solo)

GEmC
What a curious life we have found here tonight
D
There is music that sounds from the street
GEm
There lights in the clouds
C
Anna's ghost all around
DG
Hear her voice as it's rolling and ringing through me
Em
Soft and sweet
CDGEmCD
How the notes all bend and reach above the trees
(chords)

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

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