If It Makes You Happy

[Intro]
| A/E - | A/G F#m7 |

[Verse 1]
A/E A/G F#m7            A/E
            I've been long,
A/G          F#m7         A/E
   a long way    from here
A/G F#m7 A/E
         Put on a poncho,
A/G              F#m7
played for mosquitoes
A/E
Drank till I was thirsty again
Aadd11        A/E      A/G        F#m7            A/E
      We were searching   through thrift store jungles
A/G F#m7        A/E
        Found Geronimo's rifle,
A/G           F#m7
Marilyn's shampoo
    A/E
And Benny Goodman's corset and pen
Aadd11          A
      Well okay, I made that up
Aadd11  A
      I promised you I'd never give up
                   F#m7 A/F
If it makes you happy

[Chorus]
                 A/E Amaj7/E
It can't be that bad
                   F#m7 A/F
If it makes you happy
                            A/E    F#m7
Then why the hell are you so   sad?
A/E F#m7 A/E F#m7 A/G F#m7          A/E F#m7
                          You get down,
A/E    F#m7        A/E F#m7
   real    low down

[Verse 2]
A/G F#m7    A/E          F#m7
        You listen to Coltrane,
  A/E          F#m7
derail your own    train
A/E            F#m7
Who hasn't been    there before?
Aadd11
      Come 'round,
A/E F#m7 A/E F#m7          A/E   F#m7
             round the hard   way
A/G F#m7          A/E
        Bring you comics in bed,
F#m7                A/E          F#m7
    scrape the mold off the bread
    A/E             F#m7
And serve you French    toast again
Aadd11          A                  Aadd11
      Well okay, I still get stoned
    A
I'm not the kind of girl you'd bring home
                   F#m7 A/F
If it makes you happy

[Chorus]
                 A/E Amaj7/E
It can't be that bad
                   F#m7 A/F
If it makes you happy
                            A/E    Amaj7/E
Then why the hell are you so   sad?
                   F#m7 A/F
If it makes you happy
                 A/E Amaj7/E
It can't be that bad
                   F#m7 A/F
If it makes you happy
                            A/E    F#m7
Then why the hell are you so   sad?

[Verse 3]
A/E F#m7 A/E F#m7 A/G F#m7             A/E F#m7

A/E          F#m7         A/E F#m7
   a long way    from here
A/G
F#m7 A/E         F#m7       A/E          F#m7
     Put on a poncho, played   for mosquitoes
    A/E            F#m7
And been everywhere    in between
Aadd11          A
      Well okay, we get along
Aadd11    A
      But what if everything was all wrong?
                   F#m7 A/F
If it makes you happy

[Chorus]
                 A/E Amaj7/E
It can't be that bad
                   F#m7 A/F
If it makes you happy
                            A/E    Amaj7/E
Then why the hell are you so   sad?
                   F#m7 A/F
If it makes you happy
                 A/E Amaj7/E
It can't be that bad
                   F#m7 A/F
If it makes you happy
                            A/E    F#m7
Then why the hell are you so   sad?
