Capo 1
A E C#m B
This is happiness, to be everything at once.
A E C#m B
Be unblinded, be unlearned, be unbridled and unburned.
A E C#m B
A E C#m B
Heavy on our heels, the rocky ground we leave behind.
A E C#m B
Tassels streaming from our necks, we cast a wake amidst the wind.
A E C#m B
We're the roamers to the road, barebacked, spirit and in mind.
A E B
Oh, to be free like this.
Chorus:
A E C#m B
This is happiness, to be everything at once.
A E C#m B
Be unblinded, be unlearned, be unbridled and unburned.
A E C#m B A
This is happiness. I'm fearless and I'm free,
E C#m B
With the open road and the world beneath my feet.
A E C#m B
A E C#m B
With splinters in our teeth, we're driven from our parallels,
A E C#m B
Our path a prison, bound to walk where countless feet already fell.
A E C#m B
But there's a wildness in our heart, that we've forgotten in our march,
A E B
All to be free like this.

This is happiness. I'm fearless and I'm free,

With the open road and the world beneath my feet.
A E C#m B
We're branded and we're burdened from the moment we are born.
A E C#m B
We're domestic and we're discontent, and we're grinding our gums raw
A E C#m B A E C#m B
Forget your feet and where they fall, lift your head, carry on.
A E C#m B
No fear, just faith, no bit, just break the path and let it lead you.
A E C#m B
Unknown, unblind, run free, run wild and leave behind what holds you down.
A E C#m B
Heavy on our heels, the rocky ground we leave behind.
