[Verse 1]
A Waking up beside you
G
brings a kind of refuge
D It's the armor that
A
I need to face the day
A G For a second I forgot that
D
you were leaving soon
A Then the armor falls away [Pre-Chorus 1]
A This time there's no broken hearts Em7 And no one ran 'cause it got hard Bm7 A This missing you is temporary pain [Chorus] A I'm happy to be sad Em7 I'm sad that you are gone Bm7 If I was feeling nothing

I would feel like
A
something's wrong
A I'm grateful to be crying Em7 I'm crying over you Bm7 I'm lucky that we love so good
D
it has to hurt this bad
A I'm happy to be sad [Post-Chorus]
G Do-do-do-do-do-do
Bm7 Do-do-do-do-do-do A Do-do-do, do-do-do [Verse 2]
A Em7 Only me, myself, and all my thoughts Bm7 I thought that I would start to
A
crumble in the lonely
A (Start to crumble in the lo-) But I'll get to
Em7
know the momentary misery
Bm7 A Just to know somebody knows me [Pre-Chorus 2]
A This time there's no hopeless nights Em7 No losing sleep, no pointless fights Bm7 Just missing you,
A
'til you come back and hold me
[Chorus] A I'm happy to be sad (Sad) Em7 I'm sad that you are gone (Gone) Bm7 If I was feeling nothing

I would feel like
A
something's wrong
A I'm grateful to be crying (Cry) Em7 I'm crying over you (You) Bm7 I'm lucky that we love so good it
D
has to hurt this bad
A I'm happy to be sad [Post-Chorus] G (Sad) Do-do-do-do-do-do D (Gone) Do-do-do-do-do-do A (I) Do-do-do, do-do-do A I'm happy to be sad G (Sad) Do-do-do-do-do-do D (Gone) Do-do-do-do-do-do A (I) Do-do-do, do-do-do [Chorus] A I'm happy to be sad Em7 I'm sad that you are gone Bm7 If I was feeling nothing
