Don’t wanna get ahead of myself

Feeling things I’ve never felt

It’s kinda hard for me to explain

Her personality and everything

Brings me to my knees, ooh

She shines me up like gold on my arm

I wanna take it slow but it’s so hard
G
I love to see her face in daylight

It’s more than just our bodies at night

But she’s really tempting me, ooh
C
Do you think I’m being foolish if I don’t rush in?

I’m scared to death that she might be it

That the love is real, that the shoe might fit

She might just be my everything and beyond (beyond)

Space and time in the afterlife
Am
Will she have my kids? Will she be my wife?
G
She might just be my everything and beyond

I wanna bring her ’round to meet ya

I think you’d like her kind demeanor

How to play Beyond: key, chords and progression

Beyond by Leon Bridges is centred on C major (no sharps or flats). The song uses 5 chords: G, Am, D, C and F.

Listen for G – F – C – G (V – IV – I – V in C major): the song comes back to it again and again. In solfa, that is soh – fah – doh – soh. Once these 4 changes are comfortable, most of the song is done.

Easier on guitar: put a capo on the 5th fret and play the shapes D, Em, A, G, C (100% of the chords become easy open shapes, against 80% without a capo). It sounds exactly the same.
