K's Choice - Almost Happy (Almost Happy)
E C#5 B5
If I could look beyond your face.
E C#5 B5
And photograph your hidden place
E C#5 B5 A
When I found you're smiling in the picture
E C#5 B5
And I don't know what you want
E
Cause you don't know
C#5 B5 A
So what's the point of asking [MOVIE SAMPLE]
E
And you're almost happy
C#5
Almost content
A
But your head hurts
E C#5 B5
Far too many ways to go
E
To learn so much
C#5 B5
But we don't know
E
Where to look
C#5 B5 A
Or when we should stop looking
E C#5 B5
And I can love the whole of you
E C#5 B5
The poetry I stole from you
A
And hide inside my stomach
E
And you're almost happy
C#5
Almost content
A
But your head hurts
B5 A5
It's easy to get lost in you
B5 A5
And fall alseep inside of you
B5 F#
I want to return to you
A5
A reason to be here
A5 E
A reason to be here
E C#5 B5
And I don't know what you want
E
Cause you don't know
C#5 B5 A
So what's the point of asking
E
And you're almost happy
C#5
Almost content
A
But your head hurts
E
And you're almost happy
C#5
Almost content
A
But your head hurts
E C#5 A (2x)

you'll need to listen to the song to get the timing right.. it's a little wierd in the end.
the chords are fairly standard:
E 022100
A x02220
B x24442
#cm x46654
#F 244322
it also sounds rather cool if you play the chords A, B, #cm and #F with the bottom strings (that'd be the B and high E string) open
A x02200 (or a neat alternative: x07600)
B x24400
#cm x46650 (or x46600)
#F 244300
as for the picking pattern, this is what is played near the end:
e------0-----------
b------------------
g-1^2------1-2-1---
D----2----------2--
A------------------
E------------------
again, listen to the song to get the timing just right.. you'll need a second guitar for the picking (duh!).
if someone has any better suggestion (or corrections) post 'em right away.

e------------0-----0---------|
B----------------------------|
G-----1h2p1-----2-----2--1---|
D--2-------------------------|
A----------------------------|
E----------------------------|

An addition of Michiel Rutjes, he thinks the picking pattern is:
e|--------------------------|
B|--------------------------|
G|------------9~~-----9-----|
D|-6'(7)'6-------6-7----7-6-|
A|----------7---------------|

This means bend up half a note and down again.
