Happy Ever After

[G]Don't ask me [Am]why, I'm running out of lau[G]ghter,
There's tears in these [Am]eyes, not happy ever a[G]fter.
And I [Am7]thought.. it was plain to see
And I [G]thought.. the whole world could be
And I [Am]thought.. we'd be happy ever a[G]fter.

[G]You could say [Am]that.. I'm living in a p[G]ipe dream,
It's just looking [Am]back, things are never what the[G]y seem.
And I [Am7]hope.. I can safely say
And I [G]hope.. most things go my way
And I [Am]hope.. they'll be happy ever a[G]fter.

	[G]Down in Southern [Am]Africa.. no [G]happy ever after,
	Not [Am7]now, but soon... for[G]ever.
	While they're sitting [Am7]comfortably 
	In that [G]white winter city
	How [Am]can.. we be happy ever af[G]ter?

[G]So don't ask me [Am]why.. I'm running out of laug[G]hter,
There's tears in these [Am]eyes, not happy ever a[G]fter.
And I t[Am7]hought.. it was plain to see
And I [G]thought.. that maybe you and me
And I [Am]thought.. we'd be happy ever a[G]fter.
