| You took the toaster when you went |
| Bb | F | |
| You never paid your half the r | ent |
| Bb | |
| You took the spices from the | rack |
| Bb | F | |
| But you don't have to put 'em | back |
| C | |
| Cause in your haste on Hallo | ween |
| Gm | |
| You left your camera on the | bed |
| Bb | |
| Where we played roles in black and | white |
| Gm | |
| You left a roll of black and | white |
| C | |
| I set the timer thought of | you |
| Gm | |
| Put the lens up to my | head |
| Bb | |
| I took a photograph for | you |
| F | |
| What comes out gray is really | red |
| C | Gm | Bb | F | |
| So are | yo | u | happy | now |
| C | Gm | Bb | F | |
| Are | yo | u | happy | now |

| I smashed your pumpkin on the | floor |
| F | |
| The candle flickered at my | feet |
| Bb | |
| As goblins flew across the | room |
| F | |
| The children peered into the | room |
| C | |
| A cowboy shivered on the | porch |
| Gm | |
| Cinderella checked her | watch |
| Bb | |
| A hobo waited in the | street |
| Gm | |
| An angel whispered trick or | treat |
| C | |
| What was I supposed to | do |
| Gm | |
| But to sit there in the | dark |
| Bb | |
| I was amazed to think that | you |
| F | |
| Would take the candy with you | too |
| C | Gm | Bb | F | |
| So are | yo | u | happy | now |
| C | Gm | Bb | F | |
| Are | yo | u | happy | now |
| C | Gm | Bb | F | C | |

| I've sat all night and now it's | dawn |
| F | |
| And I cannot believe my | eyes |
| Bb | |
| There's garbage strewn across the | lawn |
| F | |
| Where we once stared up at the | sky |
| C | |
| And streams of paper fill the | tree |
| Gm | |
| That hovered over you and | me |
| Bb | |
| And shaving cream covers the | car |
| Gm | |
| That we picked up in Baltim | ore |
| C | |
| And though I know it's hard to | tell |
| Gm | |
| I hope that what's his name treats you | well |
| Bb | |
| I still maintain that he's a | bum |
| F | |
| But it's your money have some f | un |
| C | Gm | Bb | F | |
| So are | yo | u | happy | now |
| C | Gm | Bb | F | |
| Are | yo | u | happy | now |
| C | Gm | Bb | F | C | |
| Are | yo | u | happy | now |
| Gm | C | |
| You always asked why I had | not |
| Gm | |
| Written you a verse or | two |
| Bb | |
| Since that's the one thing I | regret |
| F | |
| I dedicate this one to | you |
| C | Gm | Bb | F | |
| So are | yo | u | happy | now |
| C | Gm | Bb | F | |
| Are | yo | u | happy | now |
| C | Gm | Bb | F | C | |
| Are | yo | u | happy | now |
| C | Gm | Bb | F | |
| Are | yo | u | happy | now |
