"And I Was Beautiful" is a song from the 1969 Broadway musical Dear World, with music and lyrics by Jerry Herman. It is sung by the character Countess Aurelia, who is famously portrayed by Angela Lansbury in the original production. The ballad appears in the musical and reflects the themes of the show. This version features a root-based chord blocking that John and I have used in a number of our arrangements - we hope you like what we've done with this very pretty tune!
