 G#        D#/G           Fm
Hello, I know it's been a while
   Cm               C#               D#
I wonder where you are, and if you think of me
    G#                   D#/G          Fm
Sometimes, 'cause you're always on my mind
      Cm           C#                D#
You know I had it rough, tried to forget you but
Fm        D#/G         G#        G#/C       C#
The more that I look around, the more I realize
                D#
You're all I'm looking for

Chorus:
      G#           D#/G
What makes you so beautiful,
       Fm              D#           C#     D#
is you don't know how beautiful you are to me
           Fm            D#
You're not trying to be perfect
 G#       G#/C              C#    D#
Nobody's perfect, but you are, to me
Fm           D#/G           G#
It's how you take my breath away
         G#/C                C#
Feel the words that I don't say
    D#          C#               G#
I wish somehow, I could say them now
    D#                   C#     D#
Oh, oh, I could say them now, yeah

Just friends, the beginning or the end
How do we make sense, when we're on our own?
It's like you're the other half of me
I feel incomplete, yeah, should have known
Nothing in the world compares
to the feelings that we share
So not fair

Chorus:
What makes you so beautiful
Is you don't know how beautiful you are, to me
You're not tryna be perfect
Nobody's perfect, but you are, to me (To me)
You try to take my breath away
Feel the words that I don't say
I wish somehow
I could say them now, oh

What makes you so beautiful
Is you don't know how beautiful you are, to me
You're not tryna be perfect
Nobody's perfect, but you are, to me (To me)
It's how you take my breath away
Feel the words that I don't say

              A#m  D#              G#
Oh, it's not you, blame it all on me
      C#       G#/C  A#m
I was running from myself
D#                G#       G#/C     A#m
Cause I couldn't tell how deep that we
D#            G#
We were gonna be
      G#/C           A#m
I was scared it's destiny, but it hurts like hell
D#
Hope it's not too late, just a twist of fate

I wish somehow
I could say them now
Oh, I could say them now, mmm
