G G/F# Em D C D G
[Verse 1]
C G C G If beauty is an ecstasy and anger keeps you poor Em Am C D A hungry man is never free, a rich man never cured C Em D G D Things were never what they used to be
[Verse 2]
C G C G Now every crowd has its silver lining, we all got stuff to sell Em Am C D And you may live your life so bitter, but you remember it so well C Em D G D Things were never what they used to be Bm Em Am D For all the folks who can run the world, drive cabs or cut your hair
[Chorus]
G G/F# Em D C D Em And the sun may set without your help, but you’re beautiful people to me G G/F# Em D C D G You may fall before you’re pushed, but it’s beautiful people I see G G/F# Em D C D Em If you only see the stars when it’s dark, that’s enough for me G G/F# Em D C D G An empty soul with a full opinion is beautiful people to me

G Em D C D G
[Verse 3]
C G C G It’s all the same in different hats, the proof of the missing link Em Am C D A nation talking to itself and none of us can think C Em D G D Things were never what they used to be Bm Em Am D For a silent fool may still be wise, there’s no way you can tell
[Chorus]
G G/F# Em D C D Em And the captain more scared than his crew is beautiful people to me G G/F# Em D C D G The finest government you could buy is beautiful people I see G G/F# Em D C D Em If you live five to one against it’s good enough for me G G/F# Em D C D G Can’t use two steps to cross a canyon, you’re beautiful people to me
[Chorus]
G G/F# Em D C D Em If you don’t see the same trees I see, you’re beautiful people to me G G/F# Em D C D G Make deserts bloom and oceans die, just beautiful people to me G G/F# Em D C D Em If you’re lost and dying of civilization, that’s enough for me G G/F# Em D C D G If you believe your own blind eye, you’re beautiful people to me
[Chorus]
Bm Em Am D And you may miss what you never had and have what you don’t need G G/F# Em D C D Em And the sun may set without your help, but you’re beautiful people to me G G/F# Em D C D G You may fall before you’re pushed, but it’s beautiful people I see G G/F# Em D C D Em If you only see the stars when it’s dark, that’s enough for me G G/F# Em D C D G An empty soul with a full opinion is beautiful people to me
[Chorus 2]
G G/F# Em D C D Em And the captain more scared than his crew is beautiful people to me G G/F# Em D C D G The finest government you could buy is beautiful people I see G G/F# Em D C D Em If you live five to one against it’s good enough for me G G/F# Em D C D G Can’t use two steps to cross a canyon, you’re beautiful people to me
[Outro]
G G/F# Em D C D Em If you don’t see the same trees I see, you’re beautiful people to me G G/F# Em D C D G Make deserts bloom and oceans die, just beautiful people to me G G/F# Em D C D Em If you’re lost and dying of civilization, that’s enough for me G G/F# Em D C D G If you believe your own blind eye, you’re beautiful people to me
