VERSE 1

       E
  You've got the best of both worlds
Abm                F#m
  You're the kind of girl who can take down a man,
    A       B
  And lift him back up again
      E
  You are strong but you're needy,
  Abm
  Humble but you're greedy
  F#m
  Based on your body language,
        A         B
  Your shouted cursive I've been reading
     E
  You're style is quite selective,
        Abm
  Though your mind is rather reckless
      F#m
  Well I guess it just suggests,
        A       B
  That this is just what happiness is

BRIDGE

 A              B
  Hey, what a beautiful mess this is
 A                B
  It's like picking up trash in dresses

CHORUS

      E           Abm
  Well it kind of hurts when the kind of words you write
  F#m       A      B
  Kind of turn themselves into knives
       E           Abm
  And don't mind my nerve, you can call it fiction
      F#m             A   B     F#
  'Cause I like being submerged in your contradictions, dear
     A    F#  A    E
  'Cause here we are, here we are

VERSE 2

   E             Abm
  Although you were biased, I love your advice
    F#m
  Your comebacks they're quick
            A       B
  And probably have to do with your insecurities
       E
  There's no shame in being crazy,
   Abm
  Depending on how you take these
  F#m              A        B
  Words they're paraphrasing this relationship we're staging

BRIDGE

 A               B
  Hey, what a beautiful mess, yes it is
 A                   B
  It's like we 're picking up trash in dresses

CHORUS
      E           Abm
  Well it kind of hurts when the kind of words you say
  F#m       A      B
  Kind of turn themselves into blades
      E            Abm
  And the kind and courteous is a life I've heard
      F#m         A       B
  But it's nice to say that we played in the dirt
     A       F#      A    E
  Cause here, here we are, Here we are
  E      Ab      F#      A    B
  Here we are, here we are, here we are, here we are,
  E      Ab      F#      A      B
  Here we are, here we are, here we are, we're still here

BRIDGE

 A              B
  And what a beautiful mess this is
 A                  B
  It's like taking a guess when the only answer is yes

CHORUS
        E          Abm
  And through timeless words and priceless pictures
     F#m      A   B
  We'll fly like birds not of this earth
    E        Abm
  And tides they turn, hearts disfigure
       F#m          A     B
  But that's no concern when we're wounded together.
     E           Abm
  And we tore our dresses, and stained our shirts
      F#m         A      B
  But it's nice today, all the wait was so worth it.
