Chorus
C G Am F Thats a Real Good Looking Boy (played 2 times)
Verse
(same progression)
She said son, well you know
You're an ugly boy
You don't really
look like him
In this long line there's been some
Real strange genes
You got them all, you got them all
With some extras thrown in
Chorus
Descending progression F Em Dm C
(same as verse)
Wise men say
Only fools
only fools rush in
But I, I
Can't help
C G Fallin' in love Am F In love with you
(combinations of F, C, and G make up the next part, I can't quite get it exactly though)
Key changes to Gm. No real chords, just the solo. Ends on Gsus4---G
Same as piano intro, and same chords in the verse.
Now I'm here with you little darling
And you say, you're beautiful as you are
And I've managed somehow, to survive
....
You arrived in my life a fragrance
Helped me find a way to laugh
Now I know
How so called beauty lies
God gave him a face
And he gave me something above
God gave me grace
And he gave me sweet sweet sweet love.
Chorus, all the same.
Ending
F Em Dm C (C) C
Brilliant.
