[Based partially on Transcription by Andrew Marsden] {DON'T DO SADNESS (Moritz Stiefel) [John Gallagher Jr in the Original Broadway Cast)} [Verse]
Bb5                           A5
Awful sweet   to be a little butterfly.

     Bb5                               A5
Just wingin' over things   and nothin' deep in-side

          Fmaj7                      E7
Nothing goin' goin' wild in you you know.

                    C                       Bb
Your slowin' by the riverside    or floatin' high and blue.
[Verse]
      Bb5                         A5
Or maybe      cool to be a little summer wind

      Bb5                                    A5
Like once through everything,    and then away a-gain.

            Fmaj7                               E7
with a taste of dust in your mouth all day, but no need to know.

      C                   Bb
Like sadness.    you just sail away.
[Chorus]
                Am
'cause you know,

   Em         C               Bb
I don't do sadness,     not even a little bit.

             Fmaj7                                 Am
Just don't need it in my life, don't want any part of it.

Em          C
 I don't do sadness,

         Bb                               Fmaj7
Hey I've done my time. Lookin back on it all man it blows my mind.

                Am             Em
I don't do sadness, so been there,

         C                  Fmaj7
Don't do sadness,    just don't care

Blue wind gets so   sad

                    F
Blowin’ through the thick corn,

            Fmaj7
Through the bales of hay,

            Am                Em
Through the open books on the grass

C           Fmaj7
Spring and  summer

Creep up and haunt you

               Fmaj7
Whistlin’ it’s got you

         Am                  Em
With its heartache, with its sorrow

Through the sudden drift of the rain

      Bb5                             A5
So, maybe I could be some kind of laundry line.

              Bb5                      A5
Hang their things on me, and I will swing 'em dry.

            Fmaj7                                     E7
You just wave in the sun through the afternoon and then see.

They come to set you free,     Beneath the    rising moon
