Happy To Be Sad

• Verse 1

Verse 1
A                    G
Waking up beside you brings a kind of refuge
         D                             A
It's the armor that I need to face the day
A                 G                         D
For a second I forgot that you were leaving soon
A
Then the armor falls away

Pre-Chorus 1
A
This time there's no broken hearts
    Em7
And no one ran 'cause it got hard
     Bm7                      A
This missing you is temporary pain

Chorus
                A
I'm happy to be sad
                     Em7
I'm sad that you are gone
                 Bm7                                   A
If I was feeling nothing I would feel like something's wrong
                   A
I'm grateful to be crying
                Em7
I'm crying over you
                  Bm7                              D
I'm lucky that we love so good it has to hurt this bad
                A
I'm happy to be sad

Post-Chorus
            G
Do-do-do-do-do-do
            Bm7
Do-do-do-do-do-do
      A
Do-do-do, do-do-do

Verse 2
     A               Em7
Only me, myself, and all my thoughts
                      Bm7                      A
I thought that I would start to crumble in the lonely
                             A
(Start to crumble in the lo-)
                         Em7
But I'll get to know the momentary misery
Bm7                   A
Just to know somebody knows me

Pre-Chorus 2
A
This time there's no hopeless nights
   Em7
No losing sleep, no pointless fights
     Bm7                                  A
Just missing you, 'til you come back and hold me

Chorus
                A
I'm happy to be sad (Sad)
                     Em7
I'm sad that you are gone (Gone)
                 Bm7                                   A
If I was feeling nothing I would feel like something's wrong
                   A
I'm grateful to be crying (Cry)
                Em7
I'm crying over you (You)
                  Bm7                              D
I'm lucky that we love so good it has to hurt this bad
                A
I'm happy to be sad

I'm sad that you are gone
                 Bm7                                   A
If I was feeling nothing I would feel like something's wrong
                   N.C.    A
I'm grateful to be crying (I)
                Em7
