Intro:

D  D7sus4   (x6)

Verse 1:
    D    Gadd11
I belong,
                D    Gadd11
A long way from here,
  D                Gadd11
I put on a poncho, played for mosquito,
    D               G
And everywhere in between,
        D    Gadd11
We went searchin',
                     D    Gadd11
Through thrift store jungles,
      D                 Gadd11
Found Geronimo's rifle, Marilyn's shampoo,
    D                          G
And Benny Goodman's corset and pen.

Pre-Chorus 1:
 G                A
Okay, I made this up,
  G                           A
I promised you I'd never give up.


Chorus:
                Em     G
If it makes you happy,
                 D     A
It can't be that bad . . .,
                Em     G
If it makes you happy,
        D               A
Why the hell are you so sad?
                Em     G
If it makes you happy,
                 D     A
It can't be that bad . . .,
                Em     G
If it makes you happy,
                     D       Gadd11

Verse 2:
        D   Gadd11
You get down,
     D       Gadd11
Real low down,
  D                   Gadd11
I listen to Coltrane, derail your own train,
    D                       Gadd11
And who hasn't been there before?
  D           Gadd11
I come 'round,
           D         Gadd11
Around the hard way,
          D                         Gadd11
Bring you comics in bed, scrape the mold off the bread,
    D                       Gadd11
And serve you French toast again.


Pre-Chorus 2:
 G                A
Okay, I still get stoned,
    G                               A
I'm not the kind of girl you'd take home.


Chorus:
                Em     G
If it makes you happy,
                 D     A
It can't be that bad . . .,
                Em     G
If it makes you happy,
        D               A
Why the hell are you so sad?
                Em     G
If it makes you happy,
                 D     A
It can't be that bad . . .,
                Em     G
If it makes you happy,
                     D       Gadd11
Why the hell are you so sad?

We've been far,
              D  Gadd11
Far away from here,
  D                Gadd11
I put on a poncho, played for mosquito,
    D               G
And everywhere in between.


Pre-Chorus 3:
 G            A
Okay, we get along,
   G                              A
So what if right now everything's wrong?

It can't be that bad . . .,
