Verse 1

Am7          F        C
Walking down 29th and Park
Am7       F            C
I saw you in another’s arms
Am7    F                C
Only a month we’ve been apart
         Am7    F C
You look happier
Am7     F             C
Saw you walk inside a bar
Am7     F                     C
He said something to make you laugh
Am7        F                     C
I saw that both your smiles were twice as wide as ours
               Am7      F     C
Yeah, you look happier, you do

Pre-Chorus 1

Am7          F               C
Ain’t nobody hurt you like I hurt you
    Am7          F                 C
But ain’t nobody love you like I do
Am7            F                C
Promise that I will not take it personal, baby
Am7              F               C
If you’re moving on with someone new

Chorus

                     Am7      F   C
’Cause baby you look happier, you do
                   Am7         F       C
My friends told me one day I’d feel it too
                    Am7      F        C
And until then I’ll smile to hide the truth
                 Am7     F    C
But I know I was happier with you

Verse 2

Am7        F             C
Sat in the corner of the room
Am7          F               C
Everything’s reminding me of you
Am7        F     C                                Am7
Nursing an empty bottle and telling myself you’re happier
F      C
Aren’t you?

Pre-Chorus 2

Am7          F               C
Ain’t nobody hurt you like I hurt you
    Am7          F                 C
But ain’t nobody need you like I do
Am7                 F           C
I know that there’s others that deserve you
       Am7           F                  C
But my darling, I am still in love with you

Chorus

                     Am7      F   C
But I guess you look happier, you do
                       Am7      F       C
My friends told me one day I’ll feel it too
               Am7       F        C
I could try to smile and hide the truth
                 Am7     F    C
But I know I was happier with you

Interlude

(Hey-yeah, hey-yeah, hey-yeah)
Am7 F  C
            x4

Outro

               Am7      F   C
Baby, you look happier, you do
                     Am7      F       C
I knew one day you’d fall for someone new
                      Am7        F      C
But if he breaks your heart like lovers do
                       Am7     F        C
Just know that I’ll be waiting here for you
