[Verso 1]
 
 Eb 
Diagonal rain 
      Bb 
Comes down on a plain 
   Eb 
Collapsing in sheets 
  Bb 
Again and again 
     Cm       Bb       F 
And again the sun appears 
                Ab 
And Im still standing here 


              Eb                     Bb 
As Ive been doing for what is now a number of years 
   Eb                       Bb 
Mismanaging time and barely managing fear 
   Cm        Bb       F 
Deciding, revising decisions, deciding 
   Ab 
Revising decisions again 
 


[Refrão]
 
             Bb 
And of course, things get ugly 
                  Ab                               Bb 
But then of course, things dont stay ugly very long 
            Cm  Bb Ab 
Its really all alright

      Eb                    Bb 
On a diet of beer and Hare Krishna cuisine 
             Eb 
Ive been pretending to learn 
             Bb 
Ive been attempting to lean 
      Cm         Bb         F                        Ab 
Into life, into love, into losing myself in the right way 


            Eb 
And I have faked it and fucked it 
       Bb 
I have had some succss 
       Eb                          Bb 
I have winged it and wangled to b one of the best 
          Cm         Bb            F 
And its tiring and much more enjoyable 
                   Ab 
To just step outside and enjoy the wind in the trees 
 


[Refrão]
 
                 Bb 
Because of course, things get ugly 
                  Ab                               Bb 
But then of course, things dont stay ugly very long 
            Cm  Bb Ab 
Its really all alright 
 


[Ponte]
 
                Bb 
Outside I have never seen a rosebush pretend to be a tree 
        Ab 
I have never caught the mountain masquerading as the sea 
            Bb 
And I have never felt more beautiful 

Than when I was just me 
      Ab 
No frills 
No frills 
 


[Refrão]
 
             Bb 
And of course, things get ugly 
                  Ab                               Bb 
But then of course, things dont stay ugly very long 
            Cm  Bb Ab 
Its really all alright
