E
Maybe it's been years
                   C#m
since I genuinely smiled
E
Maybe it's been years
since I wanted to be
  G#m      C#m
a part of anything
     E
But lately I've been
good you know I've
              C#m
actually been great
            E
Man I even laughed
               G#m
a little today oh
    C#m    G#m   C#m
so strange so strange

Chorus:
E
Tell me it's okay
              C#m  B
to be happy now
             B  
because I'm happy now
 E
Tell me it's okay
               C#m B
to be happy now
            F#m
because I'm happy now
E             C#m
Tell me it's okay
E              B  C#m B
Tell me it's okay
E             C#m
Tell me it's okay
E              B  C#m
Tell me it's okay

Thought it was my right to be
as sorry as I wanted to be
I wasted all my teenage years
being a misery factory
But something had to give,
I had to finally see the light
I think at 23 it's time
to practice what I preach
And what I preach is

Chorus

A             C#m
All my wasted hope
   E
I let go when I
B
should've held
             A
tighter And now
when the sun is
C#m           E
out I let it burn
       B
not afraid to
feel it shine on me

It's okay
Tell me it's okay, tell me it's okay
Tell me it's okay, tell me it's okay
Tell me it's okay, tell me it's okay
Tell me it's okay

Chorus:
Tell me it's okay to be happy now,
because I'm happy now
Tell me it's okay to be happy now,
my life is finally leveling out, so
Tell me it's okay to be happy now,
because I'm happy now
Tell me it's okay to be happy now,
my life is finally leveling out, so
Tell me it's okay, tell me it's okay
Tell me it's okay, tell me it's okay
Tell me it's okay, tell me it's okay
Tell me it's okay, tell me it's okay
