Ricky Nelson – A Happy Guy (Guitar)

E         A      E            A
Some guys like a nine to five job and a 

E            A            E     A
house with a white picket fence.

E         A             E          A
Some guys live for that weekly pay cheque,

       Gb                    B
but to me it don't make much sense.

     E       A            G      A    Ab
Now, I don't like a tight collar or a suit 

                A
with a matching tie.

          E           B            Ab
I like to pick up and go where the four winds

A               Gb        B     E
blow and that's why I'm a happy guy.

A     E        A           E
Happy guy (bow-bow-bow-bow-bow)

A     E        A           E
Happy guy (bow-bow-bow-bow-bow)

A     E        A           E
Happy guy (bow-bow-bow-bow-bow)

A     E        A           E
Happy guy (bow-bow-bow-bow-bow)

E       A        E             A       
I steer clear of sweet talkin' gals, they got

E             A        E     A
wedding bells on their minds.

E           A           E          A          Gb
They want a guy to stay home every night, but me, 

                B
I'm a different kind.

E      A        E     A     Ab 
I move when I'm ready and I don't have to tell 

    A
you why.

       E       A             Ab        A
I just grab my hat and leave where I'm at and 

       Gb        B     E
that's why I'm a happy guy.

A     E        A           E
Happy guy (bow-bow-bow-bow-bow)

A     E        A           E
Happy guy (bow-bow-bow-bow-bow)

A     E        A           E
Happy guy (bow-bow-bow-bow-bow)

A     E        A           E
Happy guy (bow-bow-bow-bow-bow)

E                A           E       A
You can look for me when I'm passing through and 

     E           A       E    A
I'll stay awhile in your town.

       E       A              E          A
We can live it up and let the good times roll,

    Gb                     B
but don't try to settle me down.

E         A     E         A     Ab
No girl's gonna chain me, I was born with a rovin' 

A
eye.

             E         A                   Ab
And when the thrill is gone, well, I'll be moving 

A             Gb        B     E
on and that's why I'm a happy guy. 

A     E        A           E
Happy guy (bow-bow-bow-bow-bow)

(Whoa-oh-oh-yeah)

A     E        A           E
Happy guy (bow-bow-bow-bow-bow)

A     E        A           E
Happy guy (bow-bow-bow-bow-bow)

A     E        A           E
Happy guy (bow-bow-bow-bow-bow)
