There's 3 guitar's in this song. One is an acoustic which strums the chords
and the other 2 guitars are clean electrics but they are so similar that it's
too difficult to tell the difference so I've compiled them into one guitar as
best I can. All guitars have capo on 3rd fret! Enjoy

Verse 1 (w.Fig. 1)
======= 
Everybody knows we live in a world
Where they give bad names to beautiful things 
Everybody knows we live in a world 
Where we don't give beautiful things a second glance 
Heaven only knows we live in a world 
Where what we call beautiful is just something on sale
People laughing behind their hands 
As the fragile and the sensitive are given no chance 

Chorus (w/Fig. 1)
======
And the leaves turn from red to brown 
To be trodden down 
To be trodden down 
And the leaves turn from red to brown 
Fall to the ground
Fall to the ground 

Verse 2 (w.Fig. 1)
======= 
We don't have to live in a world 
Where we give bad names to beautiful things 
We should live in a beautiful world 
We should give beautiful a second chance 

Chorus (w/Fig. 1)
======
And the leaves fall from red to brown 
To be trodden down 
Trodden down 
And the leaves turn green to red to brown 
Fall to the ground
And get kicked around

(no guitar)
You strong enough to be
Have you the courage to be
Have you the faith to be
Honest enough to stay

(w/Fig. 2)
Don't have to be the same
Don't have to be this way
C'mon and sign your name 
You wild enough to...

And we fall green to red to brown 
Fall to the ground 
But we can turn it around

Outro (w/Fig. 3)
=====
You strong enough to be
Why don't you stand up and say 
Give yourself a break 
They'll laugh at you anyway 
So why don't you stand up and be
Beautiful

Black, white, red, gold, and brown
We're stuck in this world
Nowhere to go
Turnin' around
What are you so afraid of?
Show us what you're made of
Be yourself and be beautiful
Beautiful
