[Verse 1]
[Am]1, 2, 1, 2,
[Dm]3[E][G][Am][Dm][E]
[Am][Dm][E]
I remember [Dm]all the days
when I was [E]happy all the time
The [Am]forest and the fray,
[Dm]but I was happ[E]y all the time
In the [F]honeysuckle bud[C]s,
I'll [Am]drip the [E]sweetest love
[Am]I never [Dm]lost the taste,
cause [E]I was happy
And I was happy all [Am]the time[Dm][E]
I [Am]lived inside a lo[Dm]g,
but I was [E]happy all the time
The [Am]lizards and the frog[Dm]s,
but I was [E]happy all the time
And [F]I always ate at [C]dawn,
and [E]I always slept till dark
[Am]I gu[Dm]ess I worked too hard,
I [E]was happy,
I was happy all the [Am]time.[Dm][E]
I [Am]danced beneath the moon,
[Dm]cause I was happ[E]y all the time.
With [Am]the beavers and raccoon[Dm]s,
cause I was [E]happy all the time.
In the [F]sycamores with chaperone,
[C]and flashing[Am] proving teeth.
And the [Dm]herons cheered me on,
cause I [E]was happy,
I was happy [Am]all the time.
[F][E][C][E][Am][Dm][E]
In [Am]bubble baths and [Dm]parties,
I was [E]happy all the time.
With [Am]fairies and Bac[Dm]ardi,
I was [E]happy all the time.
In the [F]darkness that in[C]spires us,
the [E]passion that [Am]requires us,
to [Dm]have to stay so loose
to be so [E]happy,
so happy all [Am]the t[Dm]ime.[E]
The [Am]river of [Dm]Bratzina,
I was [E]happy all the time
Though the [Am]bank was sorta seedy,
[Dm]I was happ[E]y all the time
So [F]I piled high the stone[C]s
until [E]the river kindly rose
[Am]Well damn [Dm]it all,
cause I was so dam[E]n happy
I [Am]was happy all the [Dm]time[E]
I [Am]took the time to breathe
[Dm]cause I was happ[E]y all the time
On [Am]the root buds and the weed[Dm]s,
cause I was [E]happy all the time.
But the [F]peat moss and the [C]leaves
took [E]turns with both my [Am]feet.
Until [Dm]my toes took root,
and I [E]was happy,
I was happy all the [Am]time.[Dm][E]
I [Am]begged upon the [Dm]sea sons,
I was [E]happy all the time.
To [Am]strip my rhymes and [Dm]reasons,
I was [E]happy all the time.
And the [F]winter rain like [C]razors,
and the sum[Am]mer bird[E]s like [Am]bees.
My [Dm]skin was thick as bark,
because I was [E]happy.
I was happy all [Am]the time.
[Dm][E][Am][Dm][E]
There was fire in [Am]the forest.
[Dm]I wa[Bdim]s happy all [E]the time.
To [Am]cleanse our closets [Dm]for us,
I was [E]happy all the time.
My [F]branches were the first
[C]to embra[E]ce the scalded ear[Am]th
My [Dm]middle open wide,
cause I was happy
[E]I was happy all the[Am] time[Dm][Bb][E]
Now there's a [Am]boy inside my [Dm]chest
and he seem[E]s happy all the time
Un[Am]tethered and undressed
[Dm]and just so happ[E]y all the time
All the [F]frogs and all the [C]lizards
Tell [E]him tales of droughts [Am]and blizzards
And [Dm]the soil beneath his toes
just feels so [E]rich[Am][E]
I'm just so [Am]happy[Dm]
[E]I'm so hap[Am]py[Dm]
[E]I'm so hap[Am]py[Dm][E]
I'm [Am]so happy[Dm][Am]
[E]I'm so [Am]happy[Dm][E][Am][Dm]
[E][Am]
[Dm][E][Am][Bb][E]
[Am][Dm][E][Dm][F]
[Am]You
[F#dim][Am]
