BEAUTIFUL AND BLUE (Tom Evans)
[commercial version from Badfinger's "Magic Christian Music" LP/The Iveys' "Maybe Tomorrow" LP]
La, la la la la
La, la la la la
She looks out of her window at the people going by
They look so happy, makes her cry
She watches them laughing
Sees the lovers holding hands and everyone each
other's friends
CHORUS:
Beautiful and blue, they're not as good as you
Beautiful and blue, they're all lonely, too
She feels so unhappy, she no longer cares for life
Has these thoughts of ending all her strife
The world doesn't know her
It's so hard and cold and cruel, she wonders why
she's such a fool
repeat CHORUS
La, la la la la
La, la la la la
[guitar solo]
CHORUS:
Beautiful and blue, they're not as good as you (they're not as good as you!)
Beautiful and blue, they're all lonely, too
They're all lonely, too
La, la la la la
La, la la la la.
