Verse:
C                         A#
dust it off, break it down
                              F
get to what we're talkin about 
              C x2
to what we're talkin about 
                        A#
don't try to hide it now 
                          F
why keep on working it out? 
               C
you can't keep working it out 


Refrain:
         C                        A#
'cause i see how it's putting you down
                F
i just can't be around 
                    C x2
what you doing this for? 
                                      A#
'cause the light in you's starting to fade 
                 F
don't let it get away 
                          C
girl you're worth so much more 


Chorus:
                          C
don't waste the pretty on him 
                          A#
don't waste the pretty on pain 
        F            
when it gets too much to take 
              C x2
don't give it away 

don't waste the pretty on life 
                A#
soon it's gonna fly on by 
    F
whatever way you got to see 
                C
don't waste the pretty 


Verse:
sit back and breath it in 
look at how lucky we are 
look at how lucky we are 
this life we're livin' in 
you got to follow your heart 
you know I'm never too far 

Refrain:
away from the pain in your eyes 
i can see your disguise 
but it's not too late 
'cause I know you can turn this around 
don't be scared, work it out 
and listen when I say 

Chorus

Bridge:
A#                         F
now just incase you need reminding
            C x2
well you're beautiful, beautiful, beautiful 
A#                             F
and there ain't no use in your hiding
              C x2 
'cause you're beautiful, beautiful, beautiful 

Chorus

C 
don't waste the pretty, don't waste the pretty
            A#
don't don't don't waste the pretty, don't waste the pretty
            F
don't don't don't waste the pretty, don't waste the pretty
                C-A#
don't waste the pretty
(repeat)
