[Verse]
E                                 A         E
Doctors' notes, swing votes, that I can't decide
      F#m             A                 E
If I stay here much longer, surely will die
 E                            A           E
Lived a life full of vice, passion and crime
 F#m             A              E
Can't say I'm perfect, but I certainly tried

[Chorus]
       E       Emaj7
To be joyful, joyful
 F#         A           F#m  E
Joyful and happy, sunny and bright
      E       Emaj7
To be joyful, joyful
 F#          A                E
Joyful and happy, just being alive

[Verse 2]
E                              A         E
No one left, no one except my demons and I
   F#       A             E      F#m      E
No one to forgive me, I'm running out of time
          E                            A           E
And it's up to me to try and meet my fate with a smile
        F#          A            C#m  F#m    E
And it might sound silly, but I still will try

[Chorus]
         E      Emaj7
To be joyful, joyful
  F#        A       E   F#m  E
Joyful and happy, sunny and bright
         E      Emaj7
To be joyful, joyful
  F#        A       E   F#m  E
Joyful and happy, just being alive
