Happy Time
(Tim Buckley)

TIM BUCKLEY
From Blue Afternoon, 1969

Verse 1:

          E             Emaj7
Ah, it's a happy time inside my mind
      E            Emaj7
When a melody does find a rhyme and
E             Emaj7           D    Dmaj7 D
Says to me I'm comin' home to stay
Dmaj7         E    Emaj7 E
Lord, home to stay
Emaj7              D   Dmaj7 D
I'm comin' home to stay
Dmaj7   E    Emaj7 E Emaj7
Home to stay 

Verse 2:

Ah, lord, it's just the same old story
Something about love for glory
A nickel and a dime a dozen, Fame
Ah, it's such a shame
Ah, the way they use your name
Ah, you know it's such a shame

Verse 3:

When it's only mine to sing a song
Hoping that you'd cross along my way
Before I have to move along
Ah, now move along
Ah, but I'll be back again
Ooh back again 

Verse 4:

Lord, it's a happy time inside my mind
When a melody does find a rhyme and
Says to me I'm comin' home to stay
Lord, home to stay
I'm comin' home to stay
Lord, Home to stay 

Coda: (repeat E Emaj7 pattern, ending on a Emaj7)
    
Sleep late now mama
Let the mornin' sun warm your bed
While I'm away
While I'm away
