[Verse 1]
G
We broke up a month ago
 
Your friends are mine
                             Am
You know I know you've moved on
 
Found someone new,
          D
One more girl who brings out the better in you
    G
And I thought my heart was detached
 
From all the sunlight of our past
     Am
But she's so sweet,
 
She's so pretty,
 D
Does she mean you forgot about me?
 
 
[Chorus]
  G
I hope you’re happy
    Em
But not like how you were with me
    Am
I’m selfish I know, I can’t let you go
   D7
So find someone great, but don’t find no one better
                    N.C.
I hope you’re happy but don’t be happier
 
 
[Verse 2]
G
And do you tell her she's the most beautiful girl you've ever seen?
                                               Am
An eternal love bullshit you know you'll never mean
 
Remember when I believed
                       D
You meant it when you said it first to me?
    G
And now I'm pickin' her apart,
     Em
Like cuttin' her down will make you miss my wretched heart
          Am
But she’s beautiful, she looks kind
    D7
She probably gives you b***erflies
 
 
[Chorus]
  G
I hope you’re happy
    Em
But not like how you were with me
    Am
I’m selfish I know, I can’t let you go
   D7
So find someone great, but don’t find no one better
 
 
[Bridge]
G
I hope you're happy
   Em
I wish you all the best, really
    Am
Say you love her, baby
 
Just not like you love me
     D            D7
And think of me fondly when your hand's around her
                    N.C
I hope you're happy but don't be happier
 
 
[Interlude]
 
G           Em          Am           D
Ooooh oh oh ooooh oh oh ooooh oh oh ooooh oooh oooh oooh
 
 
[Outro]
       G
Oh, I hope you're happy
    Em
But not like how you were with me
     Am
I'm selfish, I know
 
I can't let you go
    D
So find someone great but don't find no one better
   D7
I hope you're happy
    N.C.
But don't be happier
