Version 1 Version 2 Version 3
            This isn't the exact song as Lennon plays it, but this version is really nice to 
play softly when you're trying to get your twin boys to sleep ;)

D/B - Basically just hammer off and on the B string as you strum a normal D chord.

[Intro]

D/B
Close your eyes, have no fear
The monster's gone, he's on the run and your Daddy's here


[Chorus]

Em                              D/B
Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful boy
Em                              D/B
Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful boy


[Verse 1]

D/B
Before you go to sleep, say a little prayer
Every day, in every way, it's getting better and better


[Chorus]

Em                              D/B
Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful boy
Em                              D/B
Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful boy


[Verse 2]

Bm                B
Out on the ocean, sailing away

G                  D
I can hardly wait! 
G                  D
To see you come of age!
G                  D                      A7   G   F#m  Em
But I guess we'll both just have to have patience

G                          D
'Cause it's a long way to go
G                 D
A hard row to hoe
G                      D                A7    G   F#m  Em
Yes it's a long way to go but in the meantime...


[Bridge]

D/B
Before you cross the street, take my hand
Life is what happens to you while you're busy making other plans


[Chorus]

Em                              D/B
Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful boy
Em                              D/B
Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful boy
Em                              D/B
Darling, darling, darling [insert your boy's name here]
