Beautiful Day - Corrections
I figured out the missing parts of the previous
transcription (by Michael Albert) of this new classic song
Tune your guitar a half step down to play it.
Obs: The fill is pretty much right, though the notes are
played a little bit apart from each other. Listen to the
song carefully and you'll get it.
FILL 1
e ----9--9--9--7--9-10--7--7--7-10-10-10--9-10--9--7--9--9--7--9

INTRO
A Bm D G D A
A Bm D G D A
A Bm D G
The heart is a bloom
D A
Shoots up through the stony ground
A Bm D G
There's no room
D A
No space to rent in this town
(Same chords repeat through the rest of the song...)
You're out of luck
And the reason that you had to care
The traffic is stuck
And you're not moving anywhere
You thought you'd found a friend
To take you out of this place
Someone you could lend a hand
In return for grace
(Same chords for this next part but you can play the fill
also.)
Fill 1
It's a beautiful day
Sky falls, you feel like
Fill 1
A beautiful day
Don't let it get away
You're on the road
But you've got no destination
You're in the mud
In the maze of her imagination
The love is done
Even if that doesn't ring true
You've been all over
And it's been all over you
Fill 1 (very faintly)
It's a beautiful day
Don't let it get away
Fill 1 (very faintly)
It's a beautiful day
Ooh Hoo Aah
Fill 1
Touch me
Take me to that other place
Fill 1
Teach me
I know I'm not a hopeless case
A Bm D G D A
Bridge
Em
See the world in green and blue
D
See time move right in front of you
Em G
See the canyons broken by cloud
D
See the tuna fleets clearing the sea out
Em G
See the Bedouin fires at night
D
See the oil fields at first light
Em G
And see the bird with a leaf in her mouth
D
After the flood all the colors came out
Yaaa
(End of Bridge.)
It was a beautiful day
Don't let it get away
Beautiful day
Yaa
Touch me
Take me to that other place
Reach me
I know I'm not a hopeless case
What you don't have you don't need it now
What you don't know you can feel it somehow
What you don't have you don't need it now
Don't need it now
It's a beautiful day
There are some piano notes that can be played in the
guitar. I'll figure them out and updadte this
transcription.
Thanx!!

I agreed with the other versions of this song except I added
another D chord and added the solo. If you have any beefs
corrections comments email me and I will disregard them.

Here is an update to the incomplete tab I made of this song a few days ago.
I now have a complete
version of the song to base it on. The same chord progression is repeated
throughout except for one
part. There is only one fill that really stands out is tabbed. The bridge
still needs to be figured
out. Please feel free to email any updates, comments or corrections.
P.S} I found the lyrics posted at interference.com - I just cut and paste
them - thanks to whoever
wrote them out!

If found a much better (sounding) way of playing the...well... 'Solo' part in
this excellent song. It sounds a little weird on a regular acoustic, but plug
the electric, whack the Edge delay on and play to backing and it sounds great!
