Intro
C F Em Dm x2


Verse
Am
You plant a rose and if the rose comes up
C
You're thankful to God
            Dm
And when it doesn't you cuss him
Am
You raise a child and when the child grows up
           C
You got to learn to let go
       Dm
if you can't learn to love him


Chorus
Em              F                        C
But, oh, what a beautiful thing when you sing
              Em                       Am 
Hear all them bells ringing out in the street
                   G                     F
Hammer strikes the metal and it makes me believe
C                 Em                       Am
Oh, hear all them bells ringing out in the street
         G                        F
Blue sky cracking and it makes me believe
                  Am
'Cause if I don't believe in love
             C              F               Em             Dm
Then I don't believe in you           And I do



Am
Now I'm not saying only bad news comes
        C                  Dm
For the people who want it to
              Am
But you gotta play that music for who's listening
           C                      Dm
You got to have someone you wanna sing it to

Close my eyes, see the glorious sunset

Through the windows of a store and I want it

G        Dm        G
You were there for me

And it's a gift

And life's a beautiful thing
          G
Oh, don't waste it doll
