Joy
Phish
Transcribed by Mike from Ohio
D
Joy is over there in her incredible clothes
G
She has silver silk shimmering down to her toes
D
I was doing the best that I can I suppose
G
But that little girl dancer eventually grows
E
Well she grows
G A
D
You can’t imagine all the times that I’ve tried
G
To uncover the source of the tears that you cried
D
Let’s throw it away and just go for a ride
G
And you'd say okay but you'd keep it inside
E
And I tried
G
I tried
E
I tried
G A
I tried
CHORUS:
G D
We want you to be happy
A G
Don’t live inside the gloom
D
We want you to be happy
A G
Come step outside your room
F#m
We want you to be happy
A
Cause this is your song too
D
I never thought I could have it so good
G
You were the song that my soul understood
D
But time is a river that flows through the woods
G
And it led us to places we both understood
E
Would be gone
G
Before too long
E
Would be gone
G A
Before too long
D
When we were young we thought life was a game
G
But then somebody leaves you and you’re never the same
D
All of the places that people belong
G
To the puzzle but one of the pieces is gone
E
And it’s you
G
It’s you
E
It’s you
G A
Joy it’s you
G D
We want you to be happy
A G
Don’t live inside the gloom
D
We want you to be happy
A G
Come step outside your room
F#m
We want you to be happy
A
Cause this is your song too
