The sad thing is I'm so damn happy 
B                      E       F# 
Who'd blame her if she were to slap me 
E                        B 
The sun should not shine when there's rain 
E                B 
I should be in a lot more pain 
B                      E        F# 
At least I should feel slightly crappy 
F#                               B 
But the sad thing is I'm so damn happy 


B                           E  F#   B 
And the worst thing is it's so much better 
B              E       F# 
That admission would upset her 
         E               B 
But it's true and it's beyond belief 
E              B 
What I feel is sheer relief 
  B              E     F# 
I may regret the day I met her 
F#                                  B 
And the worst thing is it's so much better 


B                    E   F#  B 
It's comic that it's all so tragic 
B                        E         F# 
It's that hum-drum novel old black magic 
      E             B   
Let's have a laugh after we cry 
      E              B 
Let's hope we live before we die 
    B                 E       F# 
The silly clown's red nose is runny 
F#                               B 
And it's tragic that it's all so funny 


B                    E   F#  B 
It's crucial that it doesn't matter 
B                E     F# 
Vows of love are idle chatter 
E                     B 
To feel this good has to be bad 
    E              B 
I'm so damn happy that it's sad 
     B                  E       F# 
Dear listener would you like to slap me 
F#                               B 
And the sad thing is I'm so damn happy 
        F#                       B 
Yes the sad thing is I'm so damn happy
