G
Way down the mountain I chased a moonbeam
        D7                         G
On the beach I built sand castles too
My moonbeams faded my castles tumbled
C                G
All of this was meaningless
D7                  G
Cause Happiness Is You

Chorus:
C                         G
No more chasing moonbeams or catching falling stars
C                         G               D7
I know now my pot of gold is anywhere you are
                G
My heart won't miss you my heart goes with you
 C            G         D7                G
Loneliness is emptiness but happiness is you

I tried to doubt you and live without you
Tried to deny but I love you like a do
But I realize now and I'll admit it
You'll always be a part of me because happiness is you
