Capo: 5th fret

[Verse 1]
C/G
David died yesterday, today it’s raining
Em
I know I didn’t know you
F/C
But in my heart I know€ it €…to be true
N.C.
It €…is raining for you, David
C/G
The rain €…it is for you

[Verse 2]
Em
Oh how can I explain the colossal loss I feel?
F/C C/G
It’s left me gasping at the wheel
Em
Oh it comes in waves, or a single tear
F/C C/G
Like the sea washes towards the lonely pier

[Chorus]
F/C C/G
And when you are gone, the world it moves on
F/C C/G
But it’s lost its strange beauty
F/C C/G
And when you are gone, the rest of us have to carry on
F/C C/G
But the world it’s lost its strange beauty

[Post-Chorus]
F/C
Strange beauty
C/G
Strange beauty
F/C
Strange beauty

[Instrumental]
C/G Em F C/G

[Verse 3]
Em
Oh and I have been mourning all morning
F/C C/G
Since you left without a warning
Em
Searching for clues that you’re still around
F/C C/G
In this fruitless longing I have found

[Chorus]
F/C C/G
When you are gone, the world it moves on
F/C C/G
But it’s lost its strange beauty
F/C C/G
When you are gone, the rest of us have to carry on
F/C C/G
But the world has lost its strange beauty

[Post-Chorus]
F/C
Strange beauty
C/G
Strange beauty
F/C
Strange beauty
C/G
Strange beauty

[Outro]
F/C
Strange beauty
C/G
Strange beauty
F/C
Strange beauty
C/G
Oh oh oh oh
