Rex Orange County - Happiness

Capo: 3rd fret

[Verse]
A5 Dm
I’ll be the one that stays ‘till the end
F#m D
And I’ll be the one that needs you again
A5 E
And I’ll be the one that proposes in a
F#m F#
garden of roses
Bm A5 E
And truly loves you long after our curtain closes

F#m Gbm/F
But will you still love me when nobody
E
wants me around?
F#m Gbm/F
When I turn 81 and forget things, will you
E
still be proud?

A5 Dm
‘Cause I am the one that’s waited this long
F#m D
And I am the one that might get it wrong
A5 E
And I’ll be the one that will love you the
F#m F# Bm A5 E
way I’m supposed to, girl, oh

F#m Gbm/F
But will you still love me when nobody
E
wants me around, around?
F#m Gbm/F
When I turn 81 and forget things, will you
E
still be proud?

A5 E
Proud of me and my short list of
F#m F#
accomplishments, say
Bm A5 E
And me and my lack of new news
A5 E F#m F#
Me and my selfishness, oh, me and myself
Bm A5 E
Wish you nothing but a happy new version of you
F#m Gbm/F E D D E A5
Because I, I mmm, mmm, yeah
F#m Gbm/F E
I want you to tell me you find it hard to
D D
be yourself so I can say
E A5
“It’s gonna be alright”, yeah
F#m Gbm/F E
And I want you to love me the way you love
D
your family
D E
The way you love to show me what it’s like
A5 F#m Gbm/F E D D E A5
To be happy
