I Choose Happiness

Intro: C Em Am Fm7

  C                                
I feel like a boat without a sailor
  Em
I go where the wind blows
     Am                   Am7
Just moving around like a lonesome stranger
  Fm7
I got no home

   C
In search of a treasure, some place I don't know
   Em
It feels like forever
       Am                        Am7
I'm making my way through the hills and deserts
  Fm7
I thirst for hope

Dm
I don't know
            Am
What I'm looking for
    F
But I'll know
       Fm
When I find it

[Chorus]
          C                Em  
There's a missing beat inside of me
    Am                      Am7
The rhythm of my heart hits unevenly
F                    Fm
There's a missing piece inside of me

          C
Trying to figure it out, but it amounts to nothing
  Em        
I want to realize
    Am                  Am7
But nothing I find ever feels like the real thing
        Fm7
Can you empathize?

Dm
I don't know
            Am
What I'm looking for
    F
But I'll know
       Fm
When I find it

[Chorus]

Am           Fm
I'm lost inside
       C      D7
A cold bitter world
            Dm
I can't understand the need
                 Fm7
It's makes it so hard to breathe

[Chorus x2] soft then full chorus

 G
Looking for a treasure
 Gmaj7
Worth more than gold
 C7                        Cm D#maj7 Cm
It's been found, I've been told

 G
But I've been searching
 Gmaj7
Across the seas
 C7                              Cm D#maj7 Cm
Oh could it be right in front of me?

 A                          C
For now I'll entertain this daydream
 A                   C
I wonder what you're feeling

 G                  Gmaj7
I'm thinking about you
 C7                    Cm D#maj7 Cm
Are you thinking of me too?
 G                  Gmaj7
I'm thinking about you
 C7                          Cm D#maj7 Cm
I hope you're thinking of me too

Outta Here

Verse 1:
           B
I'm going back to the time when we owned this town
      E
Down Powder Mill Lane, in the battlegrounds
C#m        B                   G#m  B     F#
We were friends and lovers and clueless clowns


Verse 2:
                      B       
I didn't know I'd be finding out now I was torn from you
         E
When we thought about things we were gonna do
C#m      B                    G#m B  F# 
We were wide eyed dreamers and wiser too


Chorus:
               E              B 
Go down to the rides on East Parade,
        G#m                   F#
by the lights of the Palace Arcade
                    E                     G#m   F#   
Watch night coming down on the Sovereign Light Café


Verse 3:
                          B
I'm begging you for some sign, but you've still got nothing to say
        E
Don't turn your back on me, don't walk away

You can run away boy, but you won't go far

Overreacting

G Bm Em A
Well everybody's lookin' for something they can't find,
Walking straight ahead blind-folded production line,
Only taking time for one type of shoe-shine.
Don't look left/right now you got a street fine.
Everybody lookin' for just a little more.
Working late-nights trying to fight off the day glow.
Waiting for the come-around but it is a no show.
Driving in the fast lane lookin' for the slow-mo...

C D A
Oh whats in store I don't know anymore.
Oh what's inside 'cos I can't hide from it no more.
Oh what you see well it's not me anymore.
Oh I don't know well I don't know man anymore because 

G Bm Em A
I tell you once I tell you twice, gonna be a long time
But you don't take no one's advice, gonna be a long time you,
Where were you, you weren't listenin', gonna be a long time
Gonna be a long time.

G Bm Em A
So now you're face down, face lookin like a frying pan.
Hitting up the clubs trying to feel like a real man.
Beating your chest just like you're King Kong but you're just a gui-tar no-string no-song.
Feeling free like ya don't even know it, man you're towing the line hoping you just don't blow it.
Man ya stuck in the mainframe trying to win the big game so much potential it even makes it more of a shame, shame, shame...
Here we go again, same old shit just another name.
Looking at the destiny there in your palm,
But now you got your strings but you got no song.
So sing, sing, sing - shake it like a chicken wing.
It's not what you get it's about what you bring-bring-bring.
So bring it, bring it to the table, not because you have to 'cos you're willing and you're able!

C D A
Oh what's in store I don't know anymore.
Oh what's inside 'cos I can't hide from it no more.
Oh what you see well it's not me anymore.
Oh I don't know, I don't know anymore because 

G Bm Em A
I tell you once I tell you twice, gonna be a long time.
But you don't take no one's advice, gonna be a long time.
You, where were you, you weren't listening, gonna be a long time.
Gonna be a long time.

Gonna Be A Long Time

It takes a while to get used to the rhythm. In the verse the
time signature goes 3/4 for 2 bars then 2/4 for 1 bar and then
repeats.
