Artist: The Fray Song: Happiness First Tab woo hoo! :) This song isn't released yet. Isaac has played it live a number of times. When I saw him he said the song was dedicated to his father. Incredibly simple song but incredibly beautiful.

Cadd9  G  Em7
  Happiness

Cadd9                G
is just outside my window

Cadd9  G  Em7
Would it crash

Cadd9                G
blowing 80-miles an hour?

Cadd9  G  Em7
Or is happiness

Cadd9                G
a little more like knocking

Cadd9  G  Em7
On your door,

Cadd9                G
and you just let it in?
Cadd9 G Em7 Cadd9 G
Cadd9  G  Em7
   Happiness

Cadd9                G
feels a lot like sorrow

Cadd9  G  Em7
Let it be,

Cadd9                G
you can’t make it come or go

Cadd9  G  Em7
But you are gone-

Cadd9                G
not for good but for now

Cadd9  G  Em7
Gone for now

Cadd9                G
feels a lot like gone for good

Cadd9  G  Em7
   Happiness

Cadd9                G
is a firecracker sitting on my headboard

Cadd9  G  Em7
   Happiness

Cadd9                G
was never mine to hold

Cadd9  G  Em7
Careful child,

Cadd9                G
light the fuse and get away

Cadd9  G  Em7
‘Cause happiness

Cadd9                G
throws a shower of sparks
Cadd9 G Em7 Cadd9 G
Cadd9  G  Em7
   Happiness

Cadd9                G
damn near destroys you

Cadd9  G  Em7
Breaks your faith

Cadd9                G
to pieces on the floor

Cadd9  G  Em7
So you tell yourself,

Cadd9                G
that’s probably enough for now

Cadd9  G  Em7
   Happiness

Cadd9                G
has a violent roar
Cadd9 G Em7 Cadd9 G x2
Cadd9  G  Em7
   Happiness

Cadd9                G
is like the old man told me

Cadd9  G  Em7
Look for it,

Cadd9                G
but you’ll never find it all
(Isaac stops playing here and just sings but you can keep the guitar going)
Cadd9  G  Em7
But let it go,

Cadd9                G
live your life and leave it
(And then he starts back up here)
Cadd9  G  Em7
Then one day,

Cadd9                G
wake up and she’ll be home

Cadd9  G  Em7
   Home,
Cadd9 G
Cadd9  G  Em7
   home,
Cadd9 G
Cadd9  G  Em7
   home
Cadd9 G Like I said, incredibly simple. I hope it sounds correct. Any questions/comments/corrections: [email protected]
