Are You Happy Now


Are You Happy Now? - Richard Shindell (Sparrow's Point) ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ transcribed by laura mrspremise77@aol.com i think this song is actually in the key of F, but i've seen him live and i believe he uses a capo on the 3rd fret, which would use the chords D G A Em, but i find it easier to put the capo on the first fret and play it this way: (of course if you have a better idea feel free to express it) ************************************************************************* ARE YOU HAPPY NOW? ~Richard Shindell (happy jangly strumming) capo I (barre chords where appropriate) E A E A E A You took the toaster when you went E You never paid your half the rent A You took the spices from the rack E But you don't have to put 'em back B 'Cause in your haste on Halloween F#m You left your camera on the bed A Where we played roles in black and white F#m You left a roll of black and white B I set the timer, thought of you F#m Put the lens up to my head A I took a photograph for you E What comes out gray is really red B F#m A E So are you... happy now? B F#m A E Are you..... happy now? B F#m A E B F#m Are you.... happy now? E A I smashed your pumpkin on the floor E The candle flickered at my feet A As goblins flew across the moon E The children peered into the room B A cowboy shivered on the porch F#m And Cinderella checked her watch A A hobo waited in the street F#m An angel whispered trick or treat B What was I supposed to do F#m But to sit there in the dark A I was amazed to think that you E Would take the candy with you too B F#m A E So are you... happy now? B F#m A E Are you..... happy now? B F#m A E B F#m Are you.... happy now? E A I've sat all night, and now it's dawn E And I cannot believe my eyes A There's garbage strewn across the lawn E Where we once stared up at the sky B And streams of paper fill the tree F#m That hovered over you and me A And shaving cream covers the car F#m That we picked up in Baltimore B And though I know it's hard to tell F#m I hope that what's-his-name treats you )well A I still maintain that he's a bum E But it's your money, have some fun B F#m A E So are you... happy now? B F#m A E Are you..... happy now? B F#m A E B Are you.... happy now? F#m B You always asked why I had not F#m Written you a verse or two A Since that's the one thing I regret E I dedicate this one to you B F#m A E So are you... happy now? B F#m A E Are you..... happy now? B F#m A E B F#m E Are you......... ? comments, suggestions, etc. welcome
