G
Singing oh, happiness

Singing oh, happiness


[Verse]

        Em                   C                  A
I got a homesick heart but a long ways left to go
          Em                  C                   A
I've been doing my part but I ain't got much to show
       C             Am              Em
So I'm asking you to show me some forgiveness
     C              Am             G
It's all for you in my pursuit of happiness
Em                        C                   A
Chasing that life, moving on cause I had to prove
      Em                  C                   A
There ain't no life worth doing what I did to you
       C             Am              Em
So I'm asking you to show me some forgiveness
     C              Am             G
It's all for you in my pursuit of happiness


[Chorus]

      Em                  C         G
I got dreams that keep me up in the dead of night
        Em          C            G
Telling me I wasn't made for the simple life
          Em               C                G
There's a light I see, but it's far in the distance
       C             Am              Em
So I'm asking you to show me some forgiveness
     C              Am            G
It's all for you in my pursuit of happiness


[Post-Chorus]

G
Singing oh, happiness

Singing oh, happiness


[Verse 2]

          Em                       C                      A
I've been working all night, maybe you could help me to believe
     Em                         C                     A
This song ain't nothing if this song can't set you free
       C             Am              Em
So I'm asking you to show me some forgiveness
     C              Am             G
It's all for you in my pursuit of happiness


[Chorus]

      Em                  C         G
I got dreams that keep me up in the dead of night
        Em          C            G
Telling me I wasn't made for the simple life
          Em               C                G
There's a light I see, but it's far in the distance
       C             D               Em
So I'm asking you to show me some forgiveness
     C              D              G
It's all for you in my pursuit of happiness


[Post-Chorus]

G
Singing oh, happiness

Singing oh, happiness


[Bridge]

Am
Sometimes you leave the ones you love
G
But if it's love, they won't give up
D/F#*             Em                   D     G
Cause they know a war's raging and you gotta choose
Am
These days are tough, these days are long
G
Sometimes it's hard, you carry on
D/F#*        Em            D                G
But I hear a voice singing and I know it's true


[Chorus]

      Em                  C         G
I got dreams that keep me up in the dead of night
        Em          C            G
Telling me I wasn't made for the simple life
          Em               C                G
There's a light I see, but it's far in the distance
       C             Am             Em
So I'm asking you to show me some forgiveness
     C              Am             G
It's all for you in my pursuit of happiness


[Post-Chorus]

        C        G
Singing oh, happiness
        C        G
Singing oh, happiness
        Am C     G
Singing oh, happiness
        C        G
Singing oh, happiness
