Let's Wreck Something Beautiful, Original song by Matt Worsham

Let's Wreck Something Beautiful
© 2009 Matt Worsham

Seems we've known each other forever, through bad times and broken hearts together
We've been there for each other when we've cried or nearly died,
Drunk enough to hurt ourselves...But not drunk enough to drown a broken heart...
We held each other safe and sound, nursed each other off the ground,
Then wished each other luck as we gathered our broken wings and
Went our merry way...each knowin' we'd be back someday.

Chorus
F#m B
Since when have we been sensible?
F#m A E
Since when have we done much that's made much sense at all?
F#m B
Let's wreck something beautiful, Baby...
E A B
Let's wreck something beautiful

Always driftin' but never driftin' far, crazy as we know we both are,
We knew we'd be hurt, knew we'd be back again and again in need of a friend...
Knowing those are few and far between...
We're not the brightest lights on the porch always ready to put our heart to the torch,
But we always seemed to light each other's way...crazy as that way might have been...

Chorus

Bridge
D A
Maybe we'll live to regret it but what's life worth if you can't bet
E B
what you got the heart to risk and the guts to lose
D A E
Maybe we'll wreck something beautiful...but damn, what's the use in beautiful B
If you can't let it be beautiful?

You always said we were quite a pair,
through all our odds and endings we've been there, seems a shame not to mess up what we have...
Like we never messed up anything else before...
All we've ever had that made sense was each other,
More than friends but never quite lovers, We always been each other's favorite train wreck...
I'm a wreck you're a wreck we're a wreck and I think wrecks are beautiful...so let's be beautiful...

Chorus (repeat last line)

Thank you for putting up the lyrics Matt; we all have felt like a "train wreck " for whatever reason at one point in our lives so we can relate with this song. Great video angles.

Thanks so much Andrea! Yeah, the line about being 'each other's favorite train-wrecks' is one of my favorites in this song.
