[Verse 1]
---------------------
C      C         G             Am     G        C
 Well, I've been pacin' this room for forty hours
                  G       Am        G       C
Crawlin' up the walls and tryin' not   to call
                 G         Am    G        C
And I saw you walkin' in a supermarket aisle
                 G             Am      G     C
I didn't say a word 'cause you had the biggest smile

[Verse 2]
---------------------
    C         G            Am        G          C
And I've been thinkin' of you in the mornin' times
                  G          Am      G         C
You woke me up so soft, I forgot the world ain't kind
              G             Am    G           C
I'd pull you in and you'd kiss me through a grin
                    G                     Am   G
And you'd say you missed me when you were busy sleepin'
C              F            C
 But what if I said happy instead

[Chorus (1)]
---------------------
        G                           Am
Is the way that I reckon it should be 
           F                    C
And if you call, you'd say that you're okay
    G                      Am
And I'd be wishin' I was dead
                     F
'Cause you're happy instead
C         G   Am
 Happy instead

[Verse 3]
---------------------
    C         G                 Am    G       C
And I've been dreamin' of the life we woulda had
           G       Am    G      C
Happy at times but mostly   just mad
              G              Am       G    C
Maybe it'd worked out, maybe it'd been   fine
                     G                 Am      G
But every day your smile ain't showin' seems a waste of time
C             F            C
 So what if I said happy instead



[Verse 4]
---------------------
C         G              Am          G        C
It's been ten years, I haven't called   you once
                    G            Am      G          C
But you called last night and my child up   and jumped
                   G      Am     G        C
He asked who you were and you did   the same
                 G        Am             G
Handed me the phone and I couldn't recall   your name
C              F            C
 But what if I said happy instead

[Chorus (2)]
---------------------
         G                         Am
Is the way that I reckon I should be 
           F                      C
And if you call, you'll hear that I was okay
    G                          Am
And you'd be wishin' you was dead
                   F
'Cause I'm happy instead
C        G    Am
 Happy instead
                F
Oh, I'm happy instead
C         G   Am
 Happy instead

[Outro]
---------------------
          F            C
What if I said happy instead
        G                          Am
Is the way that I reckon I should be 
           F                     C
And if you call, you'd hear that I'm okay
    G                          Am
And you'd be wishin' you was dead
                   F
'Cause I'm happy instead
C | G | Am
