A               D A
Singing oh, happiness
A               D A
Singing oh, happiness 


          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  


         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               D A
Singing oh, happiness 
A               D A
Singing oh, happiness 


         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  


         F#m               D                   A
I got dreams that keep me up in the dead of night 
        F#m             D        A

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
