(HAPPY DAYS ARE HERE AGAIN)

SO LONG SAD TIMES,
GO 'LONG BAD TIMES.
WE ARE RID OF YOU AT LAST.
HOWDY GAY TIMES,
CLOUDY GREY TIMES.
YOU ARE NOW A THING OF THE PAST,
'CAUSE
chorus
HAPPY DAYS ARE HERE AGAIN,
THE SKIES ABOVE ARE CLEAR AGAIN.
LET US SING A SONG OF CHEER AGAIN.
HAPPY DAYS ARE HERE AGAIN.
ALTOGETHER SHOUT IT NOW,
THERE'S NO ONE WHO CAN DOUBT IT NOW.
SO LET'S TELL THE WORLD ABOUT IT NOW.
HAPPY DAYS ARE HERE AGAIN.
YOUR CARES AND TROUBLES ARE GONE,
THERE'LL BE NO MORE FROM NOW ON.
HAPPY DAYS ARE HERE AGAIN,
THE SKIES ABOVE ARE CLEAR AGAIN,
LET US SING A SONG OF CHEER AGAIN,
HAPPY DAYS ARE HERE AGAIN.

2nd verse
NO MORE SIGHING,
NO MORE CRYING.
CLOUDS OF GREY HAVE TURNED TO BLUE.
SORROW FLYING,
CARES DENYING,
ALL OUR ROSY DREAMS HAVE COME TRUE,
'CAUSE.

repeat chorus

[Shangas]

Nice recording. Good, not great. The introduction was well done, but the chorus/main melody seemed a bit hesitant and slow. It's meant to be a cheerful jazz number.

[Shangas]

The song is in the key of C or F or something. So it's dead easy. Start on C, and then head up the scale. You'll pick out the rest of the tune pretty easily.
