Happiness Is a Good Place to Visit But It Was So Sad in Fayetteville Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[D]Jerry Jeff Walker
If there's anything in this
[E]world you [G]want
Better go for yourself
[D]Lea[A]rn [D]to pick it up
with your own [E]two hands
[G]Don't count on somebody els[D]e[A]

[Verse 2]
[G]If there's a dream that you
are [A]working [G]on
Don't [A]be sur[Bm]prised[D]
[G]If any old thing that you're cou[A]nting on
[G]Just sudden[A]ly die[Bm]s[G][D]
Got to plan in advance what
you know [E]you'll need
[G]And carry it up on your [D]back[A]
[D]Got to keep the things
you need really [E]close at hand
[G]And tote them in your bag[D][A]

[Verse 3]
[G]When you're alone be
ready for [A]rain to [G]fall
On a [A]sunny [Bm]day[A]
[G]If ends just meet be ready
[A]to go [G]outside
And [A]break a leg
[Bm]You [G]may [A]as[D] well get it
straight be[E]fore you start
[G]You've got a general pla[D]n[A]
[D]To walk a road here to
there but [E]be prepared
[G]To dig it where you lan[D]d[A]

[Verse 4]
[G]If lady luck supposed to com[A]e acr[G]oss
She [A]won't come [Bm]through[A]
[G]If there'e the slightest doubt
things [A]could go wrong
[G]It's bound to [A]fall on [Bm]you[G][A]
[D]Oh I know it's nice to think
[E]that things work out
[G]And we'll all make our goa[D]l[A]
[D]But I think a man is wise to only cou[E]nt upon
[G]What his own two hands can hol[D]d[A]

[Verse 5]
[G]If by some chance your world
should [A]turn on [G]you
Come a [A]tumblin [Bm]down[A]
[G]You'll be at the place that I w[A]as at[G]
When I [A]wrote this song
