BmD/F#
Lately, I've been, I've been thinking
G
I want you to be happier, I want you to be happier
[Verse 1]
Bm
When the morning comes
D/F#
When we see what we've become
G
In the cold light of day we're a flame in the wind
Not the fire that we've begun
BmD/F#
Every argument, every word we can't take back
'Cause with the all that has happened
G
I think that we both know the way that the story ends
[Chorus]
BmD/F#
Then only for a minute
G
I want to change my mind
'Cause this just don't feel right to me
BmD/F#
I want to raise your spirits
G
I want to see you smile but
Know that means I'll have to leave
BmD/F#G
Know that means I'll have to leave
BmD/F#
Lately, I've been, I've been thinking
G
I want you to be happier, I want you to be happier
[Verse 2]
Bm
When the evening falls
D/F#
And I'm left there with my thoughts
G
And the image of you being with someone else
Em
Well, that's eating me up inside
ABmD/F#
But we run our course, we pretended we're okay
G
Now if we jump together at least we can swim
Far away from the wreck we made
[Chorus]
BmD/F#
Then only for a minute
G
I want to change my mind
'Cause this just don't feel right to me
BmD/F#
I want to raise your spirits
G
I want to see you smile but
Know that means I'll have to leave
BmD/F#GA
Know that means I'll have to leave
BmD/F#
Lately, I've been, I've been thinking
GG
I want you to be happier, I want you to be happier
[Bridge]
GD/F#
So I'll go, I'll go
ABm
I will go, go, go
GD/F#
So I'll go, I'll go
A
I will go, go, go
[Pre-Chorus]
BmD/F#
Lately, I've been, I've been thinking
G
I want you to be happier, I want you to be happier
BmD/F#
Even though I might not like this
GG
I think that you'll be happier, I want you to be happier
[Chorus]
BmD/F#
Then only for a minute
G
I want to change my mind
'Cause this just don't feel right to me
BmD/F#
I want to raise your spirits
G
I want to see you smile but
Know that means I'll have to leave
BmD/F#GA
Know that means I'll have to leave
BmAD/F#
Lately, I've been, I've been thinking
G
I want you to be happier, I want you to be happier
[Outro]
BmD/F#
So I'll go, I'll go
G
I will go, go, go
