[Intro:]
C, Em, Bb, F (x2)
C Em Bb
The universe, she's wounded
F C Em, Bb, F
She's got bruises on her feet
C Em Bb
I sat down like I always did,
F C Em Bb F
And tried to calm her down
C Em Bb
I sent her my warmth and my silence
F C Em Bb F
But all she sends me back is rain, rain
Dm G
The universe she's wounded
C C/E Am
She's still got infinity ahead of her,
F G
She's still got you and me
And everybody says that she's
C C/E Am G F
Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful, beautiful, beautiful
C C/E Am G F
That she's beautiful, beautiful, beautiful, beautiful, beautiful
C C/E Am G F
And everybody says
C Em Bb
The universe she's dancing now,
F C
They got her lit up, lit up on the moon
Em Bb
They got stars doing cartwheels
F C
all the nebulas on the tune
Em Bb
F C
The universe she's whispering so softly I can hear all the croaking insects, all the
taxi cabs, all the
Em Bb F
bum's spent change, all the boys playing ball in the alleyways
C
They're just folds in her dress
Em, Bb, F
Dm G
The universe she's wounded
C G Am
She's still got infinity ahead of her,
F G
She's still got you and me
And everybody says that she's

Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful, beautiful, beautiful

That she's beautiful, beautiful, beautiful, beautiful, beautiful
C, C/E, Am, G, F

And everybody says
