Chords with lyrics

Tuning: Standard (E MajorE A augmentedA D MajorD G+G BB E MajorE)

Intro:

Amaj7Amaj7 B6B6 G#m7G#m7 Amaj7Amaj7

Verse:

F#m7F#m7                 E6E6
Oh, what webs we weave, what little things begin
      F#m7F#m7     E6E6
An epic fortune or disaster
F#m7F#m7                 E6E6
Oh, how could you know how it would all unfold
         F#m7F#m7            E6E6
In the seconds in between her smile and your laughter?

Bridge:

    F#m7F#m7
So, you had a little boy then you had a little girl
     E6E6
Then you bought a bigger house: you were happy with your world
   F#m7F#m7                E6E6
But one day you woke up and you had a question
   F#m7F#m7
And, no matter what you do and no matter what you know
    E6E6
You cannot feel at all, no you cannot fill the hole
    A augmentedA              BB
But you carry on, cause everyone carries on

Chorus:

   Amaj7Amaj7       B6B6
And I'm so happy you're so happy
  G#m7G#m7     Amaj7Amaj7
Oh, my god, I'm crying
         B6B6        G#m7G#m7      Amaj7Amaj7
I do my best each day to keep my head up and keep smiling
Amaj7Amaj7     B6B6
I'm so happy you're so happy
G#m7G#m7        Amaj7Amaj7
We're so good at lying
Amaj7Amaj7     B6B6
I'm so happy you're so happy

Verse:

F#m7F#m7                 E6E6
How do you pass a life and make it meaningful?
           F#m7F#m7            E6E6
How do you make it all make sense, and know what it is for?
    F#m7F#m7              E6E6
Do you buy a book or two and learn them off by heart,
       F#m7F#m7            E6E6
Then wander aimless through halls and corridors?

Bridge:

     F#m7F#m7
So, I'll have a little boy, if I cannot have a girl
   E6E6
I'll buy a bigger house and I'll try to save the world
   A augmentedA             BB
I'll carry on, I'll just try to carry on

Chorus:

   Amaj7Amaj7       B6B6
And I'm so happy you're so happy
  G#m7G#m7     Amaj7Amaj7
Oh, my god, I'm crying
         B6B6        G#m7G#m7      Amaj7Amaj7
I do my best each day to keep my head up and keep smiling
Amaj7Amaj7     B6B6
I'm so happy you're so happy
G#m7G#m7        Amaj7Amaj7
We're so good at lying
Amaj7Amaj7     B6B6
I'm so happy you're so happy
