0:15The blood that run your veins
0:18Of all that you are made
0:21It didn't start with you
0:23As much as you would like it to
0:29The path they set you on
0:32Your battles lost and won
0:35The fakin' and the show
0:37And all you thought you wanted
0:42All them things you think you want
0:47And in the land where all are mourning
0:53You hear the band you hear them call
0:59You can be happy
1:04You can be happy
1:12You stood up on that hill
1:15You thought you'd had your fill
1:18Didn't want no pedestal
1:20But mark my words you will
1:26You heard your story told
1:29You felt you were getting old
1:32You thought it time to go
1:34But you couldn't find no share of gold
1:39That set you back on down the road
1:45And in the land where all are mourning
1:50You hear the band you hear them call
1:55You can be happy
2:01You can be happy
2:08So take your hopes and woes
2:11Take your bruised ego
2:14Light a fire here
2:17Where the air is clear
2:19Or take your sorrow man
2:22To your selfish land
2:25Run your poor mouth there
2:29See if they care
2:30And in the land where all are mourning
2:36You hear the band you hear them call
2:41You can be happy
2:47You can be happy
3:16And in the land where all are mourning
3:21You hear the band you hear them call
3:26You can be happy
3:31You can be happy
The blood that run your veins
Of all that you are made
It didn't start with you
As much as you would like it to
The path they set you on
Your battles lost and won
The fakin' and the show
And all you thought you wanted
All them things you think you want
And in the land where all are mourning
You hear the band you hear them call
You can be happy
You can be happy
You stood up on that hill
You thought you'd had your fill
Didn't want no pedestal
But mark my words you will
You heard your story told
You felt you were getting old
You thought it time to go
But you couldn't find no share of gold
That set you back on down the road
And in the land where all are mourning
You hear the band you hear them call
You can be happy
You can be happy
So take your hopes and woes
Take your bruised ego
Light a fire here
Where the air is clear
Or take your sorrow  man
To your selfish land
Run your poor mouth there
See if they care
And in the land where all are mourning
You hear the band you hear them call
You can be happy
You can be happy
And in the land where all are mourning
You hear the band you hear them call
You can be happy
You can be happy
