You’re a world (C#m7)a (B)way,

some where (E)in the (A)crowd,

in a for (C#m7)eign (B)place.

Are you (E)hap py (A)now?

There’s noth ing left (C#m7)to (B)say,

so I (E)shut my (A)mouth.

So, won’t you tell (C#m7)me, (B)babe:

are you (E)hap py (A)now?

(A)You’re the on (C#m7)ly one (B)who can up and run, leave me just as (E)emp ty as the day (A)you came.

You hold all (C#m7)the cards, (B)all the bro ken hearts strung o ver your (E)shoul der till it’s all (A)in vain.

And on ly you know the (C#m7)strength of (B)your teeth, the wash in the (E)weight of your pock ets (A)so deep,

and lone ly.

You’re a world (C#m7)a (B)way,

There’s noth ing left (C#m7)to (B)say,

so I (E)shut my (A)mouth.

So, won’t you tell (C#m7)me, (B)babe:

are you (E)hap py (A)now?

Are you (E)hap py (A)now?

(A)(You’re the on ly one who can.)

In the palm of (C#m7)your hands (B)you can make me dance, spin me ’round in (E)cir cles till I’m wrapped (A)in string.

You keep on talk (C#m7)ing sweet (B)till your fin gers bleed, but don’t you (E)dare ask me how (A7)I’ve been.

Now on ly (A)you know the (C#m7)strength of (B)your teeth, the wash in the (E)weight of your pock ets (A)so deep,
