A Beautiful Life

[Intro]

[Verse 1]
B                          F#
"Baby, I'm pregnant", she said
              G#m
And I saw my whole life
              E
Flash before my eyes
B                      F#
So much for planning ahead
               G#m
We're gonna be all right
                  E
There won't be a right time
            F#    G#m      E
Oh, I said, "I am way too young"
           F#     G#m    D#m  E
I'm just a kid, I can't raise one
 
[Chorus]
         N.C.            B
It feels like my life is over
                        D#m
Feels like my future's crushed
                        G#m
And I'm gonna miss the times when
                       E
It was just the two of us
                      B
I don't ever want to let go
                     D#m
Of everything that I love
                  G#m
I sure feels like dying
F#          E
Saying goodbye
N.C.
To my beautiful life

[Verse 2]
B                           F#
"Daddy, I can't sleep" she said
                  G#m
Can you leave the light on?
            F#      E      F#
And please sing me my song
B                                F#
And I can't help but think to myself
                     G#m
Those green eyes and brown curls
        F#       E
Turned into my whole world
        F#    G#m    E
She's growing up so fast
        F#      G#m D#m  E
If only I could make it last
 
[Chorus]
         N.C.            B
It feels like my life is over
                        D#m
Feels like my future's crushed
                        G#m
Cause my baby's getting older
                   F#    E
Tomorrow she'll be all grown up
              F#      B
I don't ever want to let go
                     D#m
Of everything that I love
                G#m
I turn off the lights
F#            E
And say good night
N.C.             B    B
To my beautiful life
 
[Verse 3]
B                           F#
Pack her bags and ready to go
                G#m
We look at each other
                    E
She looks like her mother
B                          F#
Off to chase dreams of her own
                 G#m
She cries in the backseat
                   E
As we wave at the taxi
        F#     G#m    E
Oh, our baby's moving out
              F#     G#m D#m E
Leaving this home an empty house
 
[Chorus]
         N.C.         B
Feels like my life is over
                        D#m
Feels like my future's crushed
                        G#m
And I'm gonna miss the times when
                   F#    E
It was just the three of us
              F#      B
I don't ever want to let go
                     D#m
Of everything that I love
                   G#m
It sure feels like dying
F#          E
Saying goodbye
        F#       B    D#m
To my beautiful life
                 G#m  F#  E
To my beautiful life
 
[Ending]
B                          F#
"Baby, I'm pregnant", she said
                G#m
And I saw my whole life
               E/B
Flash before my eyes
