Intro:
N.C. F#m7 B7 C#m7
It is not ea__sy__
^F#m It is not ^E/G# ea__sy_ ^G#7 _ ^{C#m C#m}
Verse 1:
Looking from a ^C#m/B window at the back of a house at the edge of a town ^Amaj7 _
It's grey ^B/A _ like the ^G#m7 day when I lost it
Clouds over head ^Emaj7/G# talked to a flower that was ^F#m7 almost dead
^C#m/E A body in prison. Why did I do it?
^G#7sus4/D# Someone told me not to but I ^D7 still went through it ^C#7sus4
Chorus:
^C#7 It is not ^F#m7 ea__sy_ ^B7 _ ^C#m7
(But don't give up_ now_)
^F#m It is not ^E/G# ea__sy_ ^G#7 _ ^{C#m C#m}
(Happiness is an op_tion_)
Verse 2:
^C#m/B Needed some-where to clear my head ^Amaj7
Find some ^B/A strenght, a warmer bed ^G#m7
Maximum love in a minimum world, ^Emaj7/G# I'd never achieved it, ^F#m7 but then I believed it
^C#m/E So when I lost it, how, I'm not sure ^G#7sus4/D# now
It was a strange ^D7 feeling, like a law ^C#7sus4 repealing itself
Chorus:
^C#7 It is not ^F#m7 ea__sy_ ^B7 _ ^C#m7
(But don't give up_ now_)
^F#m It is not ^E/G# ea__sy_ ^G#7 _ ^C#m
(Happiness is an op_tion_)
It is not ^F#m7 ea__sy_ ^B7 _ ^C#m7
(But don't give up_ now_)
^F#m It is not ^E/G# ea__sy_ ^G#7 _ ^{C#m C#m}
(Happiness is an op_tion_)
Verse 3:
^C#m/B I can wake up in the morning and not ^Amaj7 believe what I see ^B/A _
I ^G#m7 look in the mirror and think if that's really me
^Emaj7/G# I don't think I suit my ^F#m7 face
^{C#m/E
G#7sus4/D#} Like the Russians wondering why ^D7 _ they're born under a blue ^C#7sus4 sky
But die in a ^C#7 dark forest
It is not
Chorus:
^F#m7 ea__sy_ ^B7 _ ^C#m7
(But don't give up_ now_)
^F#m It is not ^E/G# ea__sy_ ^G#7 _ ^C#m

It is not ^F#m7 ea__sy_ ^B7 _ ^C#m7
(But don't give up_ now_)
^F#m It is not ^E/G# ea__sy_ ^G#7 _ ^C#m
(Happiness is an op_tion_)
Verse 4:
^C#m/B This is neither old nor new, it's always forever
Be- ^B/A tween sense and ambition, ^G#m7 pleasure and decision, we have to make a choice
^Emaj7/G# What do we want? ^F#m7 Everyone is singing
^C#m/E 'War, what is it good for', while planning the next one
^G#7sus4/D# I don't need to win, ^D7 you don't have to lose, you can ^C#7sus4 choose
Happiness is an ^C#7 option
It is not
Chorus:
^F#m7 ea__sy_ ^B7 _ ^C#m7
(But don't give up_ now_)
^F#m It is not ^E/G# ea__sy_ ^G#7 _ ^C#m
(Happiness is an op_tion_)
Bridge:
It isn't easy ^F#m7 ___ ^B7 the war with-in ^C#m7 _ us_
^F#m But it gets ea ^E/G# _sier_ ^G#7 the more we learn ^C#m __
I don't need to win ^F#m7 _ ^B7 you don't have to lose ^C#m7 __
^F#m You can choose ^E/G# __ hap ^G#7 _piness is an op ^C#m _tion
Chorus:
It is not ^F#m7 ea__sy_ ^B7 _ ^C#m7
(But don't give up_ now_)

(Happiness is an op_tion_)
