[Chorus]
Em                      A
You’re a world away
D                         G
Somewhere in the crowd
Em                         A
In a foreign place
D                         G
Are you happy now?
Em                                     A
There’s nothing left to say

So won’t you tell me, babe
D                         G
Are you happy now?

[Verse 1]

You’re the only one who can up and run
D                                                 G
Leave me just as empty as the day you came
Em                                                             A
And you hold all the cards, all the broken hearts
D                                                 G
Strung over your shoulder till it’s all in vain

[Pre-Chorus]
Em                                                             A
And only you know the strength in your teeth
D                                                             G
The wash in the weight of your pockets, so deep
Em A D G
And lonely

[Chorus]
Em                         A
You’re a world away
D                         G
Somewhere in the crowd

In a foreign place

Are you happy now?
Em                                     A
There’s nothing left to say
D                         G
So I shut my mouth
Em                                     A
So won’t you tell me, babe
D                         G
Are you happy now?

[Post-Chorus]
Em A D G Em A D G
You’re the only one who can

[Verse 2]
Em
In the palm of your hands
A
You can make me dance
D                                                 G
Spin me around in circles till I’m wrapped in string
Em                                                 A
You keep on talking sweet till your fingers bleed
D                                                 G
But don’t you dare ask me how I’ve been

[Pre-Chorus]
Em                                                             A
And only you know the strength in your teeth
D                                                             G
The wash in the weight of your pockets, so deep
Em A D G
And lonely

[Chorus]
Em                         A
You’re a world away
D                                     G
Somewhere in the crowd
Em                         A
In a foreign place

Are you happy now?
Em                                     A
There’s nothing left to say

Are you happy now?

Em             A             D             G
You’re the only one who can
Em             A             D             G
You’re the only, you’re the only
Em             A             D             G
You’re the only one who can
Em             A             D             G
You’re the only, you’re the only

In a foreign place
