E                 C#m
Arm in arm on the boulevard
G#m                        A    B
Speaking the language that only we know
Amaj7            B    C#m
I'll brush an eyelash from your cheek
G#m                  A       B 
I know they'll write books about you
     G#m                    A     B
And oh! the crowds and the joyful faces
F#m                   A        B
These people are just backdrop to us
F#m                  A          B
You and I don't even think like they do
G#m                    A         B
You and I we're like a different species


     E  G#m       C#m    B
Like Romeo and Juliet
     A            B
In a bunker, shot through the head
A     B               E    C#m
Everything will be beautiful
A     B               E
Everything will be beautiful


E                     C#m
Affairs of state and of the heart
G#m                A         B
I love it when you speak so passionately
Amaj7         B   C#m
We understand how music works
G#m                 A        B 
You understand what you mean to me
     G#m              A   B
And oh! the indescribable beauty
F#m                 A        B
Of a million hands raised to salute you
F#m                    A        B
Like poppies lean when winds caress them
G#m                    A      B
Cut flowers pressed to solemn duty


     E  G#m       C#m    B
Like Romeo and Juliet
     A            B
In a bunker, shot through the head
A     B               E    C#m
Everything will be beautiful
A     B               E
Everything will be beautiful

A            B
This epoch, this century,
Amaj7        B
These people and this infamy
      C#m                     ( B )
Where once there was a single summer
A    B                        E
That never seemed to turn.
