A
Singing oh, happiness
A
Singing oh, happiness
[Verse]
F#m D B
I got a homesick heart but a long ways left to go
F#m D B
I've been doing my part but I ain't got much to show
D Bm F#m
So I'm asking you to show me some forgiveness
D Bm A
It's all for you in my pursuit of happiness
F#m D B
Chasing that life, moving on cause I had to prove
F#m D B
There ain't no life worth doing what I did to you
D Bm F#m
So I'm asking you to show me some forgiveness
D Bm A
It's all for you in my pursuit of happiness
[Chorus]
F#m D A
I got dreams that keep me up in the dead of night
F#m D A
Telling me I wasn't made for the simple life
F#m E A
There's a light I see, but it's far in the distance
D Bm F#m
So I'm asking you to show me some forgiveness
D Bm A
It's all for you in my pursuit of happiness
A
Singing oh, happiness
A
Singing oh, happiness
[Verse]
F#m D B
I've been working all night, maybe you could help me to believe
F#m D B
This song ain't nothing if this song can't set you free
D Bm F#m
So I'm asking you to show me some forgiveness
D Bm A
It's all for you in my pursuit of happiness
[Chorus]
F#m D A
I got dreams that keep me up in the dead of night

There's a light I see, but it's far in the distance

[Bridge]
Bm
Sometimes you leave the ones you love
A
But if it's love, they won't give up
C# F#m E A
Cause they know a war's raging and you gotta choose
Bm
These days are tough, these days are long
A
Sometimes it's hard, you carry on
C# F#m E A
But I hear a voice singing and I know it's true
[Chorus]
F#m D A
I got dreams that keep me up in the dead of night
F#m D A
Telling me I wasn't made for the simple life
F#m E A
There's a light I see, but it's far in the distance
D Bm F#m
So I'm asking you to show me some forgiveness
D Bm A
It's all for you in my pursuit of happiness
[Outro]
A
Singing oh, happiness
A
Singing oh, happiness

Oh, happiness
A
Singing oh, happiness
