C F C Dm G C
VERSE:
G
Took a heartbreak off the coast of Maine
Dm
Came up short and I tried again
F C
Then New York stole the heart right off my sleeve
G
Fell asleep with a broken wheel
Dm
And something kept me rolling still
F C
Both eyes closed waiting for the American dream
CHORUS:
C F Dm
Yeah, I’m runnin’ just as fast as my heart can
G C
Some call me a fool and some just call it restlessness
C
But I keep on runnin’
F Dm
Changing tires and changing plans
G C
I call it my pursuit of happiness
INSTRUMENTAL:
C F C Dm G C
VERSE:
G
Found a song in Carolina
Dm
Left a tip at every diner
F C
Always running late on Eastern time
G
Put a hundred in the offering plate
Dm
And wondered if those pearly gates
F
Would open if I found the perfect rhyme
CHORUS:
C F Dm
Yeah, I’m runnin’ just as fast as my heart can
G C
Some call me a fool and some just call it restlessness
C
But I keep on runnin’
F Dm
Changing tires and changing plans
G C
I call it my pursuit of happiness
BDA K:
F C
It’s a stranger, it’s a dollar, it’s my name on a big marquee
D7 F F
It’s a million miles away, and it’s right in front of me
INSTRUMENTAL:

CHORUS:
C F Dm
Yeah, I keep on runnin’ just as fast as my heart can
G C
Some call me a fool and some just call it restlessness
C
But I keep on runnin’
F Dm
Changing tires and changing plans
G C
I call it my pursuit of happiness
G C C
Yeah, it’s all just my pursuit of happiness
