JOY

Intro: Dm7, Dm7/G
Cmaj7 Am7 Dm7 Dm7 Dm7/G
There is a thing that is automatic when you are here
Dm7 Dm7/G
Telling me everything is alright
Cmaj7 Am7 Dm7 Dm7/G
Telling me there’s nothing to fear.
Dm7 Am7 Dm7 Dm7/G
There is a sense of knowing somehow when you are near
Dm7 Dm7/G
There is no stronger force around
Cmaj7 C
And all of this strength you are offering me

Fmaj7
Maybe it is that I’m too afraid to reach out
Em7 A7sus4
Maybe I’m too ignorant to see
Dm7 Dm7/G
Maybe it is that life will always be uncertain
Dm7 Dm7/G
But there is no doubt about what you mean to me.






Fmaj7
It’s called joy, its what you are, it’s what you are,
Dm7/G Cmaj7 C
It’s what you bring to me.
Fmaj7 Em Dm7
Joy, It’s who you are, It’s what you are,
Dm7 Cmaj7 C
It’s what you bring to me.

Cmaj7 Am7 Dm7 Dm7 Dm7/G
All of a sudden there is a future that I can see.
Dm7 Dm7/G
There is a happy ever after
Cmaj7 Am7 Dm7 Dm7/G
Suddenly I can lift my head and sing like I did before
Dm7 Dm7/G
There is a song in my heart once again
Cmaj7 C
That wasn’t there before.

Fmaj7
Maybe it is that I’m too afraid to reach out
Em A7sus4
Maybe I’m too ignorant to see
Dm7 Dm7/G
Maybe it is that life will always be uncertain


Dm7 Dm7/G
But there is no doubt about what you bring to me

Fmaj7 Em Dm7
It’s called joy, it’s who you are, it’s what you are,
Dm7/G Cmaj7 C
It’s what you bring to me
Fmaj7 Em Dm7
Joy, it’s who you are, it’s what you are,
Dm7/G Cmaj7 C
It’s what you bring to me (repeat chorus)
