[Intro]
| D | Em7* | Gsus2 Gmaj7sus2 | Gsus2 Gmaj7sus2 | (x2)
 
 
[Verse 1]
    D      Em7            Gsus2  Gmaj7sus2
Ol' Sunaco Charlie drives an '87 Harley
      D            Em7      Gsus2        Gmaj7sus2
Sells gasoline and what you drink 8 to 3 AM
      D              Em7       Gsus2          Gmaj7sus2
Got a tattoo for the Corps and ex wife number 4
D              Em7                 Gsus2        Gmaj7sus2
Hummin' along, schoolin' ya on the songs on his station
         Em7                                    D/F#
He could be another one cussin' the government, no, but he smiles
    Gsus2                       A7sus4
Got hundred reasons not to, but he's the poster child for
 
 
[Chorus]
      D  Em7       Gsus2
Happy is  as happy does
       D                  Em7
Grab a six string, find a rope swing
       Gsus2
Hang a palm tree in your truck
        D    Em7     Gsus2
Drink a beer  just because
        D               Em7
Steal a slow dance in a rain storm
      Gsus2
And a kiss from who you love
Em7                   D/F#      Gsus2
Laugh and live with a half-full cup
            D  Em7       Gsus2 Gmaj7sus2
Yeah, happy is  as happy does
 
 
[Verse 2]
     D              Em7            Gsus2    Gmaj7sus2
Some find it in the scripture or a Polaroid picture
   D            Em7                    Gsus2      Gmaj7sus2
Or flip a coin, heads, you're goin' to Tucson, Arizona
       Em7                                        D/F#
But it damn sure ain't in the lookin' back on the stuff you never did
    Gsus2                              A7sus4
Sometimes, you're gonna feel that, but life is better when
 
 
[Chorus]
      D  Em7       Gsus2
Happy is  as happy does
       D                  Em7
Grab a six string, find a rope swing
       Gsus2
Hang a palm tree in your truck
        D    Em7     Gsus2
Drink a beer  just because
        D               Em7
Steal a slow dance in a rain storm
      Gsus2
And a kiss from who you love
Em7                   D/F#      Gsus2
Laugh and live with a half-full cup
            D  Em7       Gsus2   D Em7 Gsus2
Yeah, happy is  as happy does
 
 
[Bridge]
        D                 Em7
She's a long way from the old her
        Gsus2
In this mountain dive in Boulder
      D           Em7             Gsus2
Every pickle jar, crinkled dollar
           Gmaj7sus2
Takes her another mile high
 
 
[Chorus]
      D  Em7       Gsus2
Happy is  as happy does
       D                  Em7
Grab a six string, find a rope swing
       Gsus2
Hang a palm tree in your truck
        D    Em7     Gsus2
Drink a beer  just because
        D               Em7
Steal a slow dance in a rain storm
      Gsus2
And a kiss from who you love
Em7                   D/F#      Gsus2
Laugh and live with a half-full cup
          Em7       D/F#             Gsus2
When it's all black clouds, find the sun
             D  Em7       Gsus2   D Em7 Gsus2
'Cause happy is  as happy does
 
 
[Outro]
      D  Em7       Gsus2   D Em7
Happy is  as happy does
Gsus2                              N.C.
Laugh and live with a half-full cup
