This is the start of something beautiful

This is the start of something new
G                     D        C             D
You are the one who'd make me lose it all

You are the words that I will sing
 
 
[Chorus]
 
(D)       Em
And I've thrown it all away
C            G       Em         C     G
And watched you fall   into his arms again
          Em
And I've thrown it all away

Watched you fall,        now

C                  D
And take me back
 
Take me home
Em
Watch me fall
G
Down to earth
C            D
Take me back   for
 
G                    D        C             D
This is the start of something beautiful
G                    D          C
You are the start of something new

Pretty good but I have a few revisions. It was too hard to explain in a comment so i posted a revised version and still gave you the credit for the original tab. My version is on my profile
