“Beautiful Child”
by: Rufus Wainwright


Chords
Intro:  G
Verse:  C  Em7  A7  F   G

When I am older than these small goddamn hills
And there’s no reason for my mind to be still

Chorus:  C  G (repeat)
A7  F  C

Oh how I’ll feel
Like a beautiful child, such a beautiful child again

When I have finally found my room filled with toys
Be banging on my crib excited by noise

How I’ll feel, oh how I’ll feel, oh how I feel
Like a beautiful child, such a beautiful child again

bridge:  G  F#/D  Em7
C  B/G   Am   F   G
G   F#/D   Em   F   Am   F   C

And when there’s nothing to gain
Or bring me pain, or pin the blame on you or myself
And when they finally fall
These wailing walls, and burdened crosses, God’s twilight’s and all

How I’ll feel, oh how I feel, oh how I’ll feel
Like a beautiful child, such a beautiful child again

When I am older than
These small goddamn hills
