INTRO:  A  G#m  F#m  B
        A  G#m  F#m  E


VERSE 1:

A          G#m               F#m      E
Feels like someone’s put the hurt on me
A         G#m      F#m     B
And it’s making me feel sad
A           B                  E        A
Feels like someone’s trying to turn me away
A         B                E
>From the good times to the bad


VERSE 2:

A           G#m                F#m     E
Feels like someone’s trying to teach me
A       G#m                F#m     B
What is wrong from what is right
A            B        E      A
But I can’t belong to everyone
A          B             E
So let me stay with you tonight


CHORUS:

      A       G#m      F#m    B      A  G#m  F#m  E
And I hope it makes somebody happy
       A       G#m     F#m     B     A  G#m  F#m  E
Lord I hope it makes somebody happy


INSTRUMENTAL VERSE (use verse chords)


VERSE 3:

A            G#m            F#m      E
This river’s hard enough for me to swim
A            G#m            F#m    B
But there’s nowhere left to hide
A           B                E      A
I ain’t no swimmer but I won’t give in
A       B              E
Til I reach the other side


CHORUS:

      A       G#m     F#m       B      A  G#m  F#m  E
And I hope it makes somebody happy
       A       G#m     F#m      B      A  G#m  F#m  E
Lord I hope it makes somebody happy
            A      G#m    F#m     B    A  G#m  F#m  E
‘Cause it’s all to make somebody happy
         A      G#m     F#m    B       A  G#m  F#m  E
Takes us all to make somebody happy
