| D | D | D | G - G/F# - Em | A |



Verse:

D                               D
The blood that runs your veins,
                          D
Of all that you are made,

It didn't start with you,
G       G/F#  Em         A
Much as you'd like it to.

D                         D
The path they set you on,
                          D
Your battles lost and won,

The fakin' and the show,
    G   G/F# Em           A
And all you thought you owned,
         G      G/F# Em            A
All them things you think you know.



Chorus:

       G                  D
In the land when all were mournin',
             Bm                 G
You hear the band and hear them call,
           Em     G
You can be happy,
           Em     A
You can be happy, Oh.



Verse:

You stood up on that hill,
You thought you'd had your fill,
Didn't want no pedestal,
But mark my words you will.

You heard your story told,
You felt you were getting old,
You thought it time to go,
But you couldn't find no share of gold,
That sent you back on down the road.



Chorus:

In the land when all were mournin',
You hear the band and hear them call,
You can be happy,
You can be happy, Oh.



Bridge:
         
          Bm
Take your hopes and woes,
          D
Take your bruised ego,
        Em
Light a fire here,
          A
Where the air is clear,
             Bm
Or take your sorrow man,
        D
To your selfish land,
         Em 
Run your poor mouth there,
    A
And see if they care.



Chorus:

In the land when all were mournin',
You hear the band and hear them call,
You can be happy,
You can be happy, Oh.
