[Intro]
                 
                 
 
[Verse 1] 
              
The heart is a

          
 bloom        

            
   Shoots  up 

              
 through the s

     
tony ground 
             
There's no roo

          
m             

             
  No  space  t

              
o rent in this

 
 town 
              
You're out of 

          
luck          

            
     And the r

              
eason that you

         
 had to care
              
The traffic is

          
 stuck        

             
     And you'r

             
e not mo_ving 

   
anywhere
              
You thought yo

             
u'd found   a 

          
friend        

              
   To take you

             
 out  of  this

  
  place 
             
Someone you   

           
could  lend   

             
 a hand       

             
  In return   

      
for   grace

[Chorus]
              
It's a beautif

          
ul day

ike
              
It's a beautif

        Don't

[Verse 2]
              
You're on the 

          
road          

             
   But you've 

             
got   no  dest

 
ination
              
You're in the 

          
mud           

             
       In the 

             
maze of her  i

   
magina_tion
              
You love this 

          
town          

             
              

             
Even if that  

 
 doesn't ring 

true
             
You've been al

  And it's bee

It's a beautif
