     IT'S A BEAUTIFUL THING    Paul Brandt



A

Looks like everyone's here Had to put some folding chairs

         D                        A

In the visabule yea it's getting full

A

Even Old Aunt Ruby came Her first time on an aeroplane

           D                                                  A

It's her sister's girl she said she wouldn't miss it for the world

     E

And all them younguns squirming in the pews

 E

Mister Charlies in his lime green suit

        D                              A

Is a handsome man remarks Widow Calla-han

E

Uncle Joe and Uncle Jake haven't spoken since eighty-eight

       D                                  E

Just said hello it's a good day to let it go



CHORUS:

             A                    F#m

So let the angels gather let the music play

            A                             F#m

Let the preacher get to preaching all the do you takes

 D       F#m          D   E                  A

Love-ove-ove-ove-ove-ove    Is a beautiful thing

            A                      F#m                                    

Throw the rice in the air Let the church bells ring

          A                      F#m

Tie the cans to the back of that limosine

 D       F#m           D  E                  A

Love-ove-ove-ove-ove-ove    Is a beautiful thing







A

Daddy waiting with the bride as she helps him with his tie

      D                       A

She sees a tear he said it's hot in here

A

He hugs his little girl then asks How did you grow up so fast

D                                        A

God, I wish your momma cold be here for this

E          

Everybody stands and smile As she comes walking down the aisle

         D                               A

In her momma's gown and daddy breaks on down

E                

Gran and Gramps in the second row Stood right there fifty years ago

      D                                   E

And said their vows I guess it's working out



Go to chorus

E

A loaded table full of gifts, catering has covered dish, 

      D                              A

The wedding band well that's on her hand

E    

Found his keys and lowered lights pushed her down and made her cry

D                                    E

You're the one.  Knows the day will come



Go to chorus



ENDING:

 D       F#m          D   E                 D      F#m          D

E                     A     A D A D
