[Intro]
A G D G
[Verse 1]
A G
This is where, and this is where the bottle lands
D
Where all the biggest questions meet,
G
With little feet stood in the sand
A G
And this is where, the echoes slow to nothing on the tide
D G
And where a tiny pair of hands finds a sea-worn piece of glass
[Pre-Chorus]
Bm
And sets it as a sapphire in her mind
A C#m C# F#m
And there she stands, throwing both her arms around the world
C#m C# Dmaj7
A world that doesn't even know how much it needs this little girl
[Chorus]
A
It's all gonna be magnificent
Dmaj7 A
She says, "it's all gonna be magnificent"
[Verse 2]
A G
This is where it all began,
D
To light your mother's cigarette
G
Meant I got to touch her hand.
A G
And my heart, there defrosting in a gaze
D
Wasn't built to be that way
G
Suddenly I understand
[Pre-Chorus]
Bm A
There on the sand
C#m C# F#m
Throwing both her arms around the world
C#m C# Dmaj7
A world that doesn't even know how much it needs this little girl
[Chorus]
A
It's all gonna be magnificent
Dmaj7 A
She says, "it's all gonna be magnificent"
Dmaj7 A
She says, "it's all gonna be magnificent"
Dmaj7 A
She says, "it's all gonna be magnificent"
[Outro]
Dmaj7 A
Dmaj7 A
The echoes slow
Dmaj7
The bottle lands
A Dmaj7
An echo slow, and there she stands
