Jason Mraz - A Beautiful Mess

0Verse 1
              E0
1   You've got the best of both worlds
G#m1                                F#m2
2   You're the kind of girl who can take down a man,
       A3             B4
3   And lift him back up again
           E5
4   You are strong but you're needy,
   G#m6
5   Humble but you're greedy
   F#m7
6   Based on your body language,
                A8                 B9
7   Your shouted cursive I've been reading
          E10
8   You're style is quite selective,
               G#m11
9   Though your mind is rather reckless
           F#m12
10   Well I guess it just suggests,
                A13              B14
11   That this is just what happiness is

 A15                            B16
15   Hey, what a beautiful mess this is
 A17                               B18
16   It's like picking up trash in dresses

19Chorus
           E19                      G#m20
20   Well it kind of hurts when the kind of words you write
   F#m21              A22           B23
21   Kind of turn themselves into knives
             E24                      G#m25
22   And don't mind my nerve, you can call it fiction
            F#m26                          A27     B28         F#29
23   'Cause I like being submerged in your contradictions, dear
          A30       F#31   A32       E33
24   'Cause here we are, here we are

     E34                         G#m35
28   Although you were biased, I love your advice
        F#m36
29   Your comebacks they're quick
                        A37              B38
30   And probably have to do with your insecurities
              E39
31   There's no shame in being crazy,
     G#m40
32   Depending on how you take these
   F#m41                            A42                B43
33   Words they're paraphrasing this relationship we're staging

 A44                             B45
37   Hey, what a beautiful mess, yes it is
 A46                                      B47
38   It's like we 're picking up trash in dresses

41Chorus
           E48                      G#m49
42   Well it kind of hurts when the kind of words you say
   F#m50              A51           B52
43   Kind of turn themselves into blades
           E53                       G#m54
44   And the kind and courteous is a life I've heard
            F#m55                 A56             B57
45   But it's nice to say that we played in the dirt
         A58             F#59           A60       E61
46   Cause here, here we are, Here we are
   E62            G#63           F#64           A65       B66
47   Here we are, here we are, here we are, here we are,
   E67            G#68           F#69           A70           B71
48   Here we are, here we are, here we are, we're still here

 A72                           B73
52   And what a beautiful mess this is
 A74                                   B75
53   It's like taking a guess when the only answer is yes
54
55
56Chorus
               E76                    G#m77
57   And through timeless words and priceless pictures
         F#m78            A79      B80
58   We'll fly like birds not of this earth
       E81                G#m82
59   And tides they turn, hearts disfigure
              F#m83                   A84         B85
60   But that's no concern when we're wounded together.
          E86                     G#m87
61   And we tore our dresses, and stained our shirts
            F#m88                 A89           B90
62   But it's nice today, all the wait was so worth it.
