Happily Ever After (Now And Then)

By: Jimmy Buffett

1996

I've been a stand-in, a stunt man

I've takin' some falls

Troubles... I've had my share

But one has to learn how to run before walkin'

'Round breathin' that million air

Take it from me cuz I found

If you leave it then somebody else is bound

To find that treasure, that moment of pleasure

When yours, it could have been

Some people never find it

Some... only pretend, but me:

I just want to live happily ever after every now and then

I've been in vans and in bands

On and through stages

One thing I can conclude

One has to learn havin' fun is just smilin' through

Those Changes in Latitudes, Changes in Attitudes

Take it from me cuz I've found

If you leave it then somebody else is bound

To find that treasure, that moment of pleasure

When yours, it could have been

Some people never find it

Some... only pretend, but me:

I just want to live happily ever after every now and then

... PM guitar break ...

Some people never find it

Some... only pretend, but me, hell:

I just want to live happily ever after every now and then

Every now and then (OOOOoooo...)

(Every now and then) (OOOOoooo...)

(Happily ever after every now and then) (OOOOoooo...)

(Every now and then) (OOOOoooo...)

(Happily ever after every now and then)
