[Intro]
C
 
[Verse 1]
C
Someone once told me
         Am
That you have to choose
         Em
What you win or lose
        G
You can't have everything
C
  Don't you take chances
          Am
You might feel the pain
          Em
Don't you love in vain
      G
Cause love won't set you free
 
[Pre-chorus 1]
Dm         C            G
   I could stand by the side
Dm                C            G
   And watch this life pass me by
F
  So unhappy
Fm
   But safe as could be
 
[Chorus]
N.C.          C
So what if it hurts me?
             Am
So what if I break down?
                F
So what if this world just throws me off the edge
   G
My feet run out of ground
             C
I gotta find my place
             Am
I wanna hear my sound
                 F
Don't care about all the pain in front of me
      G                     N.C. C       Am
Cause I'm just trying to be hap-py, yeah
             Em     G
Just wanna be happy,  yeah
 
[Verse 2]
C
  Holding on tightly
           Am
Just can't let it go
               Em
Just trying to play my role
G
Slowly disappear, 
C
  But all these days
               Am
They feel like they're the same
    Em
Just different faces, different names
G
Get me out of here
 
[Pre-chorus 2]
Dm               C            G
   Well, I can't stand by the side, ooh no
Dm                C           G
   And watch this life pass me by, pass me by
 
[Chorus]
              C
So what if it hurts me?
             Am
So what if I break down?
                F
So what if this world just throws me off the edge
   G
My feet run out of ground
             C
I gotta find my place
             Am
I wanna hear my sound
                 F
Don't care about all the pain in front of me
      G                        Dm   Am   C
Cause I'm just trying to be happy
G   Dm   Am  C  G
 Oh, happy,   oh
 
[Bridge]
        Dm                 Am
So many turns that I can't see
           C                G
Like I'm a stranger on this road
              F
But don't say victim
      Fm
Don't say anything
 
[Chorus]
N.C.          C
So what if it hurts me?
             Am
So what if I break down?
                F
So what if this world just throws me off the edge
   G
My feet run out of ground
N.C.       C
I gotta find my place
           Am
I wanna hear my sound
                 F
Don't care about all the pain in front of me
G                   C
I just wanna be happy
    Am      F
Happy,  happy
G               N.C. C   Am    Em   G
I just wanna be hap-py      happy

strumming pattern for the chorus is DDUUD DUDU for each chord. the rest just sounds good by strumming the chord once.
