C                            Dm
Fall out of bed and catch a fading star
A#
Fancy I woke up before my alarm
           C                              Dm
Rubbed my mind through my eyes, it's the best I can do
            A#
Before its automatic habit of returning to you

Though I smile when it happens, almost as if it was magic
It means there's a God somewhere and he's laughing
And I shuffle my slipperless toes to the kitchen
Still low to the ground, but high on living

Chorus:
        C         Dm                      A#
And I know, I know, it's gonna be a good day
 C          Dm                A#
Hello, hello, you beautiful thing

Waking up, I stretch my body and acknowledge some aches
Must be something I did yesterday
Pour a cup of liquid gold, because my engine's still cold
But in a minute everything's gonna change

Chorus:
Cause I know, I know, it's gonna be a good day
Hello, hello, you beautiful thing
Hello, hello, you beautiful thing

Looking out from a cul de sac, watching the bend of
the Earth take the black of the night from the dirt
I can see from the depths of my readjustment eyes of
reflection of yes's and that ever changing sky
But why do bad dreams linger long after I awake?

I don't need no scenes of violence or pain replayed
And I feel quite foolish sometimes when I pray
But my thoughts are all I've got so I try to make em' brave

Chorus:
And I know, I know, it's gonna be a good day
Hello, hello, you beautiful thing
Hello, hello, you beautiful thing
I say, hello, hello, you beautiful thing

Oh this is what I've been waiting for
(This is what I've been waiting for)
(This is what I've been waiting for)
(This is what I've been waiting for)
(Hello)

Chorus:
And I know, I know, it's gonna be a good day
Hello, hello, you beautiful thing
