Tom : D
Intro: A
E D A
You pulled up and parked your El Dorado
E D A
We said "hi" and kissed with some bravado
E D A
I got out my camera and was laughing
E D A
Happy it was you I'm photographing
G D A
And we drove to the ferry
G D A
Like the cat and canary
G D A
I said, "Baby, it's scary
Em
When it's so beautiful
F#m
Why does it hurt me
To feel so much tenderness?
Em
Beautiful
A G D A
You little wonder, you"
E D A
Maybe then I held your hand and kissed you
E D A
I know once I just hauled off and hit you
G D A
'Cause I can't even stand it
G D A
'Cause I don't want to end it
G D A
To be perfectly candid,
Em
Baby, you're beautiful
F#m
Sometimes it hurts me
Bm
To feel so much tenderness
Em
Beautiful
A G D A
Wish you could see it, too
F#m D A
And all I have to do today
Em D A
Is make you happy
F#m D A
The only thing you have to say
Em D A F#m Bm A
Is, "It's all lovely, baby"
E D A
Late that night, we checked into the Bellevue
E D A
Held you close, but, baby - couldn't tell you
G D A
And we stayed in our Calvins
G D A
And we swore we'd be best friends
G D A
And I looked through the zoom lens
Em
And thought you were beautiful
F#m
Sometimes it hurts me
Bm
To feel so much tenderness
Em
Beautiful
F#m
Baby, I'm dazzled
Bm
By the view
Em
Beautiful
F#m
You don't need to tell me
Bm
I'm completely powerless
Em
Beautiful
A G D A
I wish you could see it, too
G D A
I wish you could see it, too
G D A
I wish you could see it, too
G D A
Baby, how I see you
