Intro
G#m B/D#
Lately, I've been, I've been thinking
E
I want you to be happier, I want you to be happier
[Verse 1]
G#m
When the morning comes
B/D#
When we see what we've become
E
In the cold light of day we're a flame in the wind
Not the fire that we've begun
B/D#
Every argument, every word we can't take back
'Cause with the all that has happened
E
I think that we both know the way that the story ends
[Chorus]
G#m B/D#
Then only for a minute
E
I want to change my mind
'Cause this just don't feel right to me
G#m B/D#
I want to raise your spirits
E
I want to see you smile but
Know that means I'll have to leave
G#m B/D#
E
Know that means I'll have to leave
G#m B/D#
Lately, I've been, I've been thinking
E C#m
I want you to be happier, I want you to be happier
[Verse 2]
B/D#
When the evening falls
And I'm left there with my thoughts
E
And the image of you being with someone else
C#m
Well, that's eating me up inside
F# G#m B/D#
But we run our course, we pretended we're okay
E
Now if we jump together at least we can swim
Far away from the wreck we made
[Chorus]
G#m B/D#
Then only for a minute
E
I want to change my mind
'Cause this just don't feel right to me
G#m B/D#
I want to raise your spirits
E
I want to see you smile but
Know that means I'll have to leave
G#m B/D# E
F#
Know that means I'll have to leave
G#m F# B/D#
Lately, I've been, I've been thinking

I want you to be happier, I want you to be happier
[Bridge]
E B/D#
So I'll go, I'll go
F# G#m
I will go, go, go
E B/D#
So I'll go, I'll go
F#
I will go, go, go
[Pre-Chorus]
G#m B/D#
Lately, I've been, I've been thinking
E
I want you to be happier, I want you to be happier

I think that you'll be happier, I want you to be happier
[Chorus]
G#m B/D#
Then only for a minute
