D (Em) Happy hurts VERSE: (RAP) Em C This on again, off again tempermental affection G D For my darkened depression is making me go mad Em C I hear there's a fine line between crazy and sad G D But I can't tell the difference up close Em C There's a lot of us you know ill and undiagnosed G D But I don't need a piece of paper to tell me what I already know Em C G I'm not alright, for tonight, can we let that be alright? D Pick up the battle again in the morning light PRE-CHORUS: (RAP) Em C And I'm fighting so hard to come out of the dark G D Trying to turn off the night, finally let in the light Em C Trying to make my misery just a piece of my history G D A little less victim, a little more victory CHORUS: Em C G D Happy hurts sometimes, oh oh oh Em C G D Blame it on the monsters in my mind, oh oh oh Em C I keep getting better G D At slowly getting worse, oh oh oh Em C G What's wrong with me when happy hurts? (D) Em Happy hurts VERSE: (RAP) Em C Today I feel okay guess it was all just in my head G D I just need to try harder I guess Em C Yeah everyone else in the world seems to be doing alright G Yeah, I'm alright for tonight D Can we let the pain and the happy mix Em C Can the two coexist? The beauty next to the mess G D Because I swear I have them both already beating in my chest Em C If that makes me crazy even numbers don't lie G D But I don't call that crazy I call it being alive PRE-CHORUS: (RAP) Em C And I'm fighting so hard to come out of the dark G D Trying to turn off the night, finally let in the light Em C Trying to make my misery just a piece of my history G D A little less victim, please CHORUS: Em C G D Happy hurts sometimes, oh oh oh Em C G D Blame it on the monsters in my mind, oh oh oh Em C I keep getting better G D At slowly getting worse, oh oh oh Em C G What's wrong with me when happy hurts? D Em C G Bm Em C G D Happy hurts VERSE: (RAP) Em C If I had to pick between the way that I am G D And the way that everybody else seems to pretend Em C I wouldn't consider it, not for even a second G D Between psycho and sanity, it's not even a question Em C My favorite parts of myself seem to make the least sense, G D All the cracks in my skin they just let the light in Em C My favorite parts of myself make the least sense G D All the cracks in my skin let the light in CHORUS: Em C G D Happy hurts sometimes, oh oh oh Em C G D All I want's the one thing I can't fi-ind Em C I keep getting better G D At slowly getting worse, oh oh oh Em C G D Em C What's wrong with me when happy hur-urts?
