A Beautiful Mess Uke tab by Jason Mraz

E Abm  F#m  A  B   E Abm  F#m  A  B
---------------------------------------------------
               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                        Abm      
You are strong but you're needy, humble but you're greedy
    F#m                                     A                 B              
And based on your body language and shouted cursive I've been reading
     E                                    Abm          
Your style is quite selective though your mind is rather reckless
       F#m                                 A              B                
Well I guess it just suggests that this is just what happiness is
---------------------------------------------------
A                          B   
Hey, what a beautiful mess this is
A                          B    
It's like picking up trash in dresses
---------------------------------------------------
        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 could call it fiction
      F#m                          A             B F#                      
But I like being submerged in your contradictions, dear
       A       F#   A       E   Abm   F#m   A   B
'Cause here we are, here we are
---------------------------------------------------
        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                    Abm           
There's no shame in being crazy depending on how you take these
F#m                                     A      B                
Words I?m paraphrasing this relationship we're staging
---------------------------------------------------
A                          B   
And, what a beautiful mess this is
A                          B           
It's like picking up trash in dresses
---------------------------------------------------
        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
     F#   A       F#           A                    
Oh dear, here we are, here we are
---------------------------------------------------
E            Abm          F#m          A       B                              
Here we are, here we are, here we are, here we are  
E            Abm          F#m          A           B                                
Here we are, here we are, here we are, we're still here
---------------------------------------------------
A                          B   
And, what a beautiful mess this is
A                                 B         
It's like taking a guess when the only answer is Yes
---------------------------------------------------
        E                  Abm           
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 and 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. Oh, the wait was so worth it. 

E Abm  F#m  A  B
