Intro: Am F C Em G 

verse 1 
                 Am                                F 
There's just one thing that we all crave, from the cradle to the grave 
           C                                  Em                G 
A state of grace or state of mind, a point in space or point in time 
           Am                                    F 
In time of peace, in times of war, the self same goal that we yearn for 
             C                                     Em           G 
Some have it all, but still have less, what we all need is happiness 

Bb                                F 
  Happiness is what you need, yeah, happiness is all around 
Eb                         Gm                F  Eb 
  I's not easy to define it, it can't easily be found 
Gm                F  Eb   Gm                F  Eb 
  It can't easily be found, it can't easily be found 
                   F 
You know that it's true 

verse 2 
          Am                                  F 
'Cos happiness just can't be bought, such purity more precious still than gold 
         C                                      Em                 G 
And happiness just can't be taught, when you*re young or if you're old 
          Am                                 F 
No matter how, how hard you try, in your own life, and through your years 
           C                               Em               G               Am 
With every up, must come a down, enjoy the laughter and the tears...of happiness
