[Intro]

[Verse 1]
Dmaj9
Diamonds used to be coal,
Dmaj9
Look young 'cause they got soul.
Dmaj9
That's why they're beautiful.
Dmaj9
And my heart used to be cold,
Dmaj9
'Til your hands laid on my soul,
Dmaj9
Baby, that's why you're beautiful.
 
[Chorus]
                   A/G D6/F#
I'm not wondering why,
          Gmaj7                Bm7
The sky's blue, that's not my business.
    A         A/G F#m7 A
All I know is I,
     G               A/C#
Look up and tell myself,
             Dmaj9
"Be patient, love, that could be us."
 
[Interlude]
Dmaj9
 
[Verse 2]
Dmaj9
Lovers used to make love,
Dmaj9
And died just to give us.
Dmaj9
Their piece of the beautiful,
Dmaj9
Remember when we made love?
Dmaj9
Love, wasn't it beautiful?
 
[Chorus]
              A/G D6/F#
Don't ask me why
          Gmaj7                Bm7
The sky's blue, that's not my business.
    A         A/G F#m7 A
All I know is I,
     G               A/C#
Look up and tell myself,
             Dmaj9
"Be patient, love, that could be us."
 
[Bridge]
Bm9          A/C#
   Diamonds used to be coal,
D/F#             G
     Look young 'cause they got soul.
Bm9              A/C#
    And my heart used to be cold,
D/F#                 G
    'Til your hands laid on my soul.
Bm9                                Cmaj7
   Somebody's got to stay deep in love,
              G
That could be us,
                     Dmaj9
That's why we're beautiful.
                     Dmaj9
That's why you're beautiful.
 
[Outro]
Dmaj9
Why, why?
                         Dmaj9
That's why you're beautiful
N.C.
That's why you're beautiful
N.C.
That's why you're beautiful
