🎸 Intro: C F G C ( x2 ) 🎸 Verse 1: G Took a heartbreak off the coast of Maine Dm Came up short and I tried again F C Then New York stole the heart right off my sleeve G Fell asleep with a broken wheel Dm And something kept me rolling still F Both eyes closed waiting for the American dream 🎸 Chorus: C F Dm Yeah I’m runnin’ just as fast as my heart can G C Some call me a fool and some just call it restlessness C But I keep on runnin’ F Changing tires and changing plans G C I call it my pursuit of happiness
🎸 Interlude: C F G C 🎸 Verse 2: G Found a song in Carolina Dm Left a tip at every diner F C Always running late on Eastern time G Put a hundred in the offering plate Dm And wondered if those pearly gates F Would open if I found the perfect rhyme 🎸 Chorus: C F Dm Yeah I’m runnin’ just as fast as my heart can G C Some call me a fool and some just call it restlessness C But I keep on runnin’ F Changing tires and changing plans G C I call it my pursuit of happiness 🎸 Bridge: F C It’s a stranger, it’s a dollar, it’s my name on a big marquee D F It’s a million miles away, and it’s right in front of me 🎸 Instrumental: F Em Dm F Em Dm 🎸 Chorus: C F Dm Yeah Keep on runnin’ just as fast as my heart can G C Some call me a fool and some just call it restlessness C But I keep on runnin’ F Changing tires and changing plans G C I call it my pursuit of happiness F C Yeah, it’s all just my pursuit of happiness
