Tom: E
B E B E B E B E
[Verse 1]
B E
Honey, when I'm above the trees
B E
I see this for what it is
B C#m7 B
But now I'm right down in it, all the years I've given
E B
Is just shit we're dividin' up
C#m7 B
Showed you all of my hiding spots
E B
I was dancing when the music stopped
C#m7 B E
And in the disbelief, I can't face reinvention
B E B E
I haven't met the new me yet
[Chorus]
B E
There'll be happiness after you
B C#m7
But there was happiness because of you
B C#m7
Both of these things can be true
B E
There is happiness
[Post-Chorus]
B C#m7
Past the blood and bruise
B E
Past the curses and cries
B C#m7
Beyond the terror in the nightfall
B
Haunted by the look in my eyes
E
That would've loved you for a lifetime
B C#m7
Leave it all behind
B
And there is happiness
[Verse 2]
E B
Tell me, when did your winning smile
C#m7 B
Begin to look like a smirk?
E B C#m7
When did all our lessons start to look like weapons
B E
Pointed at my deepest hurt?
B C#m7
I hope she'll be a beautiful fool
B E
Who takes my spot next to you
B
No, I didn't mean that
C#m7 B
Sorry, I can't see facts through all of my fury
E B C#m7 B
You haven't met the new me yet
[Chorus]
E B
There'll be happiness after me
C#m7 B
But there was happiness because of me
E B
Both of these things, I believe
C#m7 B
There is happiness
[Post-Chorus]
E B C#m7 B
In our history, across our great divide
E B
There is a glorious sunrise
C#m7
Dappled with the flickers of light
B E B
From the dress I wore at midnight, leave it all behind
C#m7 B
And there is happiness
[Bridge]
F#m E A B
I can't make it go away by making you a villain
F#m E A B
I guess it's the price I paid for seven years in Heaven
C#m7 E
And I pulled your body into mine
B
Every goddamn night, now I get fake niceties
C#m7 E
No one teaches you what to do
B
When a good man hurts you
And you know you hurt him too
[Verse 3]
E B
Honey, when I'm above the trees
C#m7 B
I see it for what it is
E B C#m7 B E
But now my eyes leak acid rain on the pillow where you used to lay your head
B C#m7
After giving you the best I had
B E
Tell me what to give after that
B C#m7 B
All you want from me now is the green light of forgiveness
E B
You haven't met the new me yet
C#m7 B
And I think she'll give you that
[Chorus]
E B
There'll be happiness after you
C#m7 B
But there was happiness because of you too
E B
Both of these things can be true
C#m7 B
There is happiness
[Post-Chorus]
E B C#m7 B
In our history, across our great divide
E B
There is a glorious sunrise
C#m7
Dappled with the flickers of light
B E B
From the dress I wore at midnight, leave it all behind
C#m7 B
Oh, leave it all behind
E B
Leave it all behind
C#m7
And there is happiness
