Standard (EADGBE)
Seven weeks have passed now
since she left me,
And she shows her face to ask me how I am
She says the kids are fine
and that they miss me
Maybe I could come and baby-sit sometime
She says, "are you OK?
I was worried about you,
can you forgive me? I
hope that you'll be happy." I said
Chorus
"I'm so happy that I can't stop crying,
I'm so happy, I'm laughing through my tears."
I saw a friend of mine.
He said "I was worried about you,
I heard she had another man,
I wondered how you felt about it"
Chorus
"I'm so happy that I can't stop crying,
I'm so happy, I'm laughing through my tears."
Saw my lawyer, Mr. goodnews, he got me
Joint custody and legal separation
Chorus
"I'm so happy that I can't stop crying
I'm laughing through my tears,
I'm laughing through my tears"
I took a walk alone last night.
I looked up at the stars
To try to find an answer in my life
I chose a star for me,
I chose a star for him
I chose two stars for my kids and
one star for my wife
something made me smile.
something seemed to ease the pain,
something about the universe and
how it's all connected
I saw that friend of mine, he said,
"you look different somehow."
I said,"everybody's got to
leave this darkness sometimes."I said,
Chorus
I'm so happy that I can't stop crying,
I'm laughing through my tears,
I'm laughing through my tears
I'm so happy that I can't stop crying,
I'm laughing through my tears,
I'm laughing through my tears
