Basic chords through chorus and verses : C Am Em F
C
Baby can you hear me there
I know you're hanging by a thread
Am
My misery needs company
That's why I said the things I said
Em
Standing in the ruins of us I realized
F
The damage I've done
C
Heaven knows I didn't come to get you back and make it right
Am
I'm only here to tell you now I see you in a different light
Em
In the end you need to know the things I said
F
Are not who you are
C
So baby be gentle with yourself
Am
You know you're like no one else
Em
Down to your soul
F
You really are beautiful
You Really are beautiful
C
I'm sorry that I broke your trust
Am
I wasn't strong there for you
I never heard a word you said
Em
Or took the proper care of you
Looking at the heart of it
F
It's obvious to see I was wrong
C
Please ignore the consequence of ugliness,

You really are beautiful
