C         Em                Am                    G            F   C        F   G
Everybody knows we live in a world where they give bad names to beautiful things
C         Em                Am                    G               F   C      F       G
Everybody knows we live in a world where we don't give beautiful things a second glance
C           Em                 Am                 G             F     C       F         G
Heaven only knows we live in a world where what we call beautiful is just something on sale
C         Em                 Am                    G             F  C       F          G
People laughing behind their hands As the fragile and the sensitive are given no chance

[Chorus]

C               Em       Am    G
And the leaves turn from red to brown
F    C        F
To be trodden down
G
To be trodden down
C              Em        Am     G
And the leaves turn from red to brown
F    C      F
Fall to the ground
G
Fall to the ground

C              Em          Am    G 
We don't have to live in a world where 
    F    C       F       G
We give bad names to beautiful things
C         Em        Am       G
We should live in a beautiful world
F  C           F          G
We should give beautiful a second glance

[Chorus]

C              Em       Am     G
And the leaves fall from red to brown
F    C        F
To be trodden down
G
Trodden down
C              Em       Am      G
And the leaves turn green to red to brown
F     C       F
Fall to the ground
G
And get kicked around

Am         D         F
You strong enough to be
Am           D        F
Have you the faith to be
Am   D         F
Sane enough to be

F                Am
Honest enough to say
Am        D          F
Don't have to be the same
Am         D          F
Don't have to be this way
Am       D          F
C'mon and sign your name
F               G         Em
You wild enough to remain beautiful?
F        G  Em
Beautiful

[Chorus]

C              Em       Am     G
All the leaves turn from red to brown
F    C        F
To be trodden down
G
Trodden down
C            Em        Am     G
And we all fall green to red to brown
F    C      F
Fall to the ground
G
But we can turn it around

Am  D      F
You strong enough to be
Am  D       F
Why don't you stand up and say
Am  D    F
Give yourself a break
Am  D      F
They laugh at you anyway
F  G  Em
So why don't you stand up and be
F  G  Em
Beautiful

C             Em         Am    G
Black, white, red, gold, and brown
F     C       F
We're stuck in this world
G
Nowhere to go
C             Em  Am  G
Turnin' around
F    C        F
What are you so afraid of?
G
Show us what you're made of
C             Em       Am   G
Be yourself and be beautiful
F      C  F
Beautiful
