Happy Talk

Rogers and Hammerstein

Chorus

G G C A

Happy talk, keep talkin' happy talk,

Am D7 G G7

Talk about things you'd like to do.

C Cm

You got to have a dream,

G E7

If you don't have a dream,

A7 D7 G

How you gonna have a dream come true?

G Gmaj7

Talk about the moon floatin' in the sky

C G

Lookin' at a lily on the lake;

Talk about a bird learnin' how to fly.

A7 D

Makin' all the music he can make.

Chorus

G Gmaj7

Talk about a star lookin' like a toy

C G

Peekin' through the branches of a tree;

Talk about the girl, talk about the boy

A7 D

Countin' all the ripples on the sea.

Chorus

G Gmaj7

Talk about the boy sayin' to the girl:

C G

"Golly, baby, I'm a lucky cuss"

Talk about the girl sayin' to the boy:

A7 D

"You an' me is lucky to be us!"

Chorus

G7 C

If you don't talk happy,

G7 C Cm

And you never have dream,

G A7 D7 Gmaj7

Then you'll never have a dream come true!
