Happy And Poor

Bm C

G Em (x4)

[Verse]

G
Remember the way the mattress sat
N.C.
In the middle of my room
N.C.                                        G
With a light above and my notebooks on the nightstand
N.C.
The calm and the storm, the rain and the phone
                                   C            Em                   G
Listening to all these records at midnight, for once home felt like home

[Chorus]

C                              G
I've always found myself back here
                               C
With a constant ringing in my head
                                   G                            Em
I'm still excited after all these years, September came and went

[Verse]

G   Em          G              Em     G
The cold on my face, I like to be outside
        Em         G         Em     C
I stare up at the stars when I get home
             Em                  G
Tonight it's all weighing on my mind
G      Em    G         Em       G             Em            G     Em      C
After three AM I just start to write, and my thoughts they always end up blank
           Em                      G
Oh well, another time and another place

[Chorus]

C                              G
I've always found myself back here
                               C
With a constant ringing in my head
                                   G
I'm still excited after all these years, September came and went

[Interlude]

[Bridge]

N.C.
I'm poor and I'm happy
N.C.
I'm tired and I'm cranky
N.C.
I'm poor and I'm happy at least most of the time
        G
I feel young, I feel restless
       G
I'm a fool, and I'm reckless
         G                                       G    Em
But I'm poor and I'm happy at least most of the time

[Chorus]

C                              G
I've always found myself back here
                               C
With a constant ringing in my head
                                   G
I'm still excited after all these years, September came and went
C                              G
I've always found myself back here
                               C
With a constant ringing in my head
                                   G
I'm still excited after all these years, September came and went
