G
[Verse 1]
G
The blood that run in your veins
G
Of all that you are made
G
It didn’t start with you
C G/B Am G/B D G
As much as you would like it to
[Verse 2]
G
The path they set you on
G
Your battles lost and won
G
The faking and the show
C G/B Am G/B D
And all you thought you wanted
C G/B Am G/B D
All them things you think you want
[Chorus]
C G/B
And in the land where all are mourning
Em C
You hear the band, you hear them call
Am C
You can be happy
Am D G
You can be happy, hmm hmm
[Verse 3]
G
You stood up on that hill
G
You thought you’d had your fill
G
Didn’t want no pedestal
C G/B Am G/B D G
But mark my words you will
[Verse 4]
G
You heard your story told
G
You felt you were getting old
G
You thought it time to go
C G/B Am G/B D
But you couldn’t find your share of gold
C G/B Am G/B D
That set you back on down the road
[Chorus]
C G/B
And in the land where all are mourning
Em C
You hear the band, you hear them call
Am C
You can be happy
Am D
You can be happy, hmm hmm
[Bridge]
Em G
So take your hopes and woes, take your bruised ego
Am D
Light a fire here where the air is clear
Em G
And take your sorrow, man, to your selfish land
Am D
Run your poor mouth there and see if they care
[Chorus]
C G/B
And in the land where all are mourning
Em C
You hear the band, you hear them call
Am C
You can be happy
Am D G
You can be happy, hmm hmm
[Instrumental]
G C Em D G C D
[Chorus]
C G/B
And in the land where all are mourning
Em C
You hear the band, you hear them call
Am C
You can be happy
Am D
You can be happy, hmm hmm
