James Blunt - 'You're Beautiful'

From 'Back to Bedlam'

A rare tab from Worzell - (Actually my only tab - frustrated at not being able to find
it anywhere on the internet, I actually bothered to write it down - good song).There's
two Guitars - Both have a Capo on the 3rd Fret, everything written relative to capo:
Hammer on & Pull off
C (hammer on & pull
G (hammer on & pull
Am (hammer on & pull
F (hammer on & pull

twice on each chord of the verse:


off on the D string)
off on the A string)
off on the D string)
off on the G string)

C
My life is brilliant.
G
My love is pure.
Am
I saw an angel.
F
Of that I'm sure.
C
She smiled at me on the subway.
G
She was with another man.
Am
But I won't lose no sleep on that,
F
'Cause I've got a plan.

Yeah, she caught my eye,
As we walked on by
She could see from my face that I was,
Fucking high,
And I don't think that I'll see her again,
But we shared a moment that will last till the end.

You're beautiful. You're beautiful.


You're beautiful, it's true.
I saw your face in a crowded place,
And I don't know what to do,
'Cause I'll never be with you.

You're beautiful. You're beautiful.


You're beautiful, it's true.
There must be an angel with a smile on her face,
When she thought up that I should be with you.
But it's time to face the truth,
I will never be with you.
I'm Yours - Jason Mraz

Tuning:EADGBe
This is the tab for the first version, not the one that was released 2008
To do the"clicking"sound: gently lift your fingers from the fretboard of the guitar but
keep your finger in the position of the chord. Use use right palm to mute the strings.
should sound kind of reggea (use a plectrum to
get more "clicking")
this is an example of how to play the chords.
y= gently lift your fingers and strum downwards (clicking sound)
x= gently lift your fungers and strum upwards (clicking sound)

*From here on it's B-F#-G#m-E until the end of the song*


Lyrics:
I've been spending way too long checking my tongue in the mirror
And bending over backwards just to try to see it clearer
But my breath fogged up the glass
And so I drew a new face and I laughed
I guess what I'm saying is there ain't no better reason
To rid yourself of vanity and just go with the seasons
It's what we aim to do
Our name is our virtue
I won't hesitate no more, no more
It cannot wait I'm sure
There's no need to complicate
Our time is short
This is our fate, I'm yours
Well open up your mind and see like me.
Open up your plans and damn your free.
I look into your heart and you'll find the sky is yours.
So please dont please dont please dont theres no need to complicate.
Cause our time is short.
This is this is this is our fait.
Im yours...

CAPO 4
The Chords through the whole Song except a few parts are:
G D Em C
I play them like this -so I can play the chords and the Intro melody on one guitarthe Capo4:

d=down
u=up
Quickly release the up's and actually just play the e, B, and G string..
alternatively you could play the open D
chord here cause it's easier to do

it's easier) play it with a second guitar:
