[Intro] D Gmaj7 D Gmaj7 [Verse 1]
D
Joy is over there in her incredible clothes

         Gmaj7
She has silver silk shimmering down to her toes

      D
I was doing the best that I can I suppose

         Gmaj7
But that little girl dancer eventually grows

      E    (riff)  G   A
She grows

[Riff]

[Verse 2]
D
You can’t imagine all the times that I tried

     Gmaj7
To uncover the source of the tears that you cried

       D
“Let’s throw it away and just go for a ride”

    Gmaj7
And you’d say “ok” but you’d keep it inside
E (riff) And I tried
   G
I tried
E (riff) I tried
   G      A
I tried
[Chorus]
G                      D
  We want you to be happy

      A
Don't live inside the gloom

G                      D
  We want you to be happy

     A
Come step outside your room

G                   F#m
  We want you to be happy

                       A        D
Cause this is your song too
[Verse 3]
D
I never thought I could have it so good

Gmaj7
You were the song that my soul understood

    D
But time is a river that flows through the woods

       Gmaj7
And it led us to places we both understood
E (riff) Would be gone
           G
Before too long
E (riff) Would be gone
          G      A
Before too long
[Verse 4]
D
When we were young we thought life was a game

         Gmaj7
But then somebody leaves you and you’re never the same

D                                          Gmaj7
All of the places and people belong to the puzzle
But one of the pieces is gone E (riff) And it’s you
     G
It’s you
E (riff) It’s you
          G     A
Joy, it’s you
[Chorus]
G                      D
  We want you to be happy

      A
Don't live inside the gloom

G                      D
  We want you to be happy

     A
Come step outside your room

G                      F#m
  We want you to be happy

                       A
Cause this is your song too
[Solo] | Em C | G D | A | | Em C | G D | A | [Bridge]
Em               C              G
   In time we’ll weather this storm

         D/F#             A
Inside together you’ll see the change

         C   G      A
When the sun shines through
[Chorus]
G           D          A
  We want you to be happy
Don't live inside the gloom
G           D          A
  We want you to be happy
Come step outside your room
G                   F#m
  We want you to be happy

                       A
Cause this is your song too

          This is your song too

This is your song too

        A
This is your song too
