G
I feel that it's hard enough to say good-bye
I feel there's the water, should I sink or dive?
   C
An empty plate,
                                G
fill up my sentimental morning stars
G
And I steal the art of putting truth in a lie
And I still want the girl that really caught my eye
               C
But, oh, she lives in Oklahoma City,
              G
far away from me
                 C
Well, there's an empty hope chest,
I quit the dope quest
                          G
And remain independently happy

Chorus:
G
I said I'm finally happy, happy
               C   G
Independently happy

And I deal with the fact that
I've forgiven the worst
And I feel that my social behavior
May seem somewhat unrehearsed
But another page, a sullen rage
And I'll be back to my normal self

Chorus:
I'm finally happy, happy
Independently happy

So I drive to the edge of my considerate plane
And I apologize to the people I hurt on the way
But I
I wipe the slate clean, I kick the daydream
And remain independently happy

Chorus:
I said I'm finally happy, happy
Independently
Happy, I'm happy
I'm independently, I'm independently
