G     A      Gbm
Happy people
G           A         Gbm
Living in a sad world
G     A      Gbm
Happy people
G           A         Gbm
Living in a sad world


[Verse]

A
Everyone comes from somewhere
A
I leave and you arrive
Em
I watch you on the staircase
Em
Taking two steps at a time
Gbm
I wonder if you need me
Gbm
I think I'm gonna cry
Gbm
The outside world demands me
Gbm
And I have to say goodbye


[Chorus]

G     A      Gbm
Happy people
G           A         Gbm
Living in a sad world
G     A      Gbm
Happy people
G           A         Gbm
Living in a sad world


[Verse]

A
All the pomp and circumstance
A
Can't drag me away from this
Em
A simple suburban love affair
Em
Where you fight and then you kiss (do you call me a fool)
Gbm
The feeling of epic grandeur
Gbm
At the end of a summers day
Gbm
The sense of so much missing
Gbm
When the world gets in the way


[Chorus]

G     A      D
Happy people
G           A         Gbm
Living in a sad world
G     A      D
Happy people
G           A         Gbm
Living in a sad world


[Bridge]

A      E
Peeeople
A     E
Happy peeeople
A      E
Peeeople
A     E
Happy peeeeople


[Verse]

Em
No-one comes from nowhere
Em
I leave and you arrive
Em
It's the rhythm of our history
Em
It's the beat behind our lives (do you call me a fool)
Gbm
Our blues would be in B flat
Gbm
Pain defining wisdom
Gbm
But the soul is in the hi-hat
Gbm
Programmed in the system


[Chorus]

G     A      Gbm
Happy people
G           A         Gbm
Living in a sad world
G     A      Gbm
Happy people
G           A         Gbm
Living in a sad world
