Loudon Wainwright III – So Damn Happy (Guitar)

B                    E   F#  B
The sad thing is I'm so damn happy

B                      E       F#
Who'd blame her if she were to slap me

E                        B
The sun should not shine when there's rain

E                B
I should be in a lot more pain

B                      E        F#
At least I should feel slightly crappy

F#                               B
But the sad thing is I'm so damn happy

B                           E  F#   B
And the worst thing is it's so much better

B              E       F#
That admission would upset her

         E               B
But it's true and it's beyond belief

E              B
What I feel is sheer relief

  B              E     F#
I may regret the day I met her

F#                                  B
And the worst thing is it's so much better

B                    E   F#  B
It's comic that it's all so tragic

B                        E         F#
It's that hum-drum novel old black magic

      E             B  
Let's have a laugh after we cry

      E              B
Let's hope we live before we die

    B                 E       F#
The silly clown's red nose is runny

F#                               B
And it's tragic that it's all so funny

B                    E   F#  B
It's crucial that it doesn't matter

B                E     F#
Vows of love are idle chatter

E                     B
To feel this good has to be bad

    E              B
I'm so damn happy that it's sad

     B                  E       F#
Dear listener would you like to slap me

F#                               B
And the sad thing is I'm so damn happy

        F#                       B
Yes the sad thing is I'm so damn happy
