Lyrics

Pass me that lovely little gun
My dear, my darling one
The cleaners are coming, one by one
You don't even want to let them start
They're knocking now upon your door
They measure the room, they know the score
They're mopping up the butcher's floor
Of your broken little hearts
Forgive us now for what we've done
It started out as a bit of fun
Here, take these before we run away
The keys to the gulag
Come on
Come on
Come on
Come on
Here comes Frank and poor old Jim
They're gathering round with all my friends
We're older now, and the light is dim
And you are only just beginning
Oh, children
We have the answer to all your fears
It's short, it's simple, it's crystal-clear
It's roundabout and it's somewhere here
Lost amongst our winnings
The cleaners have done their job on you
They're hip to it, man, they're in the groove
They've hosed you down, you're good as new
And they're lining up to inspect you
Oh children
Poor old Jim's white as a ghost
He's found the answer that we lost
We're all weeping now, weeping because
There ain't nothing we can do to protect you
We're happy, Ma, we're having fun
And the train ain't even left the station
And have you left a seat for me?
Is that such a stretch of the imagination?
I'm hanging in there, don't you see?
In this process of elimination
We're happy, Ma, we're having fun (children)
It's beyond my wildest expectation (oh, children)
We're happy, Ma, we're having fun
The train ain't even left the station (oh, children)
(Hey, little train, wait for me)
(I once was blind but now I see)

Ordering and printing the music was trouble-free. I purchased this as a gift for my guitarist husband, and he reports that the TAB is a faithful transcription of the guitar accompaniment as performed by John Denver. I expect that he will order some additional music based upon the quality of this piece.

Arrangements are great. Excellent customer service. Wide variety of music. Fair and low prices. I would suggest following their download instructions carefully before downloading your music and I wouldn’t do it on my iPhone again using Safari. They recommend Chrome as the browser.

* Hey there, musical maestro! Before you splash out on that sheet music, let's play a quick game of 'Spot the Icon'! Peek at the bottom of our viewer and search for the nifty 'notes' icon. It's a sneaky sign that'll tell you whether you can jazz things up with some transposition.
Oh, and fancy a sneak peek of the melody in action? Give that play button a tap to see if it belts out a tune or plays coy.
A heads-up, though: if you buy without giving these a check, our musical elves can't grant a refund. Think of it as the ultimate 'test before you invest' challenge. Happy note hunting!

FREE "It's a Beautiful Day" Sheet Music

From his 2013 album "To Be Loved," "It's a Beautiful Day" stands out as an upbeat and catchy track. Contrary to the title's optimism, the song humorously touches upon the relief of ending a tumultuous relationship, realizing it's actually a "beautiful day" without the other person. The lively tempo and Buble's vocals made it a favorite among fans.
