Happiness

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.

I guess I figured out the chords from this video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gUxWdBzdwC8

Incredibly simple song but incredibly beautiful.

Standard Tuning

Cadd9 x 3 2 0 3 3

G 3 2 0 0 3 3

Em7 0 2 2 0 3 3

During the, [Cadd9 G] part, Isaac occasionally throws in a hammer on the A and D

(watch the video for correct placement).

Capo 2nd Fret

Happiness

is just outside my window

Would it crash

blowing 80-miles an hour?

Or is happiness

a little more like knocking

On your door,

and you just let it in?

Happiness

feels a lot like sorrow

Let it be,

you can’t make it come or go

But you are gone-

not for good but for now

Gone for now

feels a lot like gone for good

Happiness

is a firecracker sitting on my headboard

Happiness

was never mine to hold

Careful child,

light the fuse and get away

‘Cause happiness

throws a shower of sparks

Happiness

damn near destroys you

Breaks your faith

to pieces on the floor

So you tell yourself,

that’s probably enough for now

Happiness

has a violent roar

Happiness

is like the old man told me

Look for it,

but you’ll never find it all

(Isaac stops playing here and just sings but you can keep the guitar going)

But let it go,

live your life and leave it

(And then he starts back up here)

Then one day,

wake up and she’ll be home

Home,

home,

home

Like I said, incredibly simple.

I hope it sounds correct.
