I Hope You're Happy Now
from Blood and Chocolate
tabbed by theoquik@aol.com


This is a guitar-based transcription, though some notes played
by other instruments may be included so that the lone guitarist
can more fully realize the tune as it exists on Blood & Chocolate.
Those lone guitarists with dexterity trouble can skip those notes
and still "put over" the song in question, but it won't sound as cool.
Lower case letters indicate that the preceding chord should be played
with the lower case note in the bass (e.g.  A    g    f#    =   you play an
A chord, then you play an A chord with a G in the bass, then an A chord with
an F# in the bass)

Tricky chords are pictured below the transcription.

Elvis Costello - I hope you're happy now (Live By Request)
Elvis Costello & the Imposters "Live By Request" - A&E Television September 25, 2003

Ashes to Ashes - Happy Now
So I finally made a whole music video, instead of just the first third of one. It quickly lost any point it might have started out with. Anyway, it's just some silly tribute to the love/hate (mostly loooove) between Alex and Gene. Aw, you guys! I've spent way too much of this week syncing boobs to music. Music: I Hope You're Happy Now by Elvis Costello. Please to Enjoy!

My Hero [Chapter 9]
[nicks POV] I woke up and looked over at Joe. "was I really talking to JoJo last nigh?" I still couldn't believe it. "yeah and you sang to her all night too. I'm starting to get annoyed of your voice." Joe said. He looked like he didn't sleep very well last night. I just laughed. She was my number one fan. Our number one fan. When we thought there was no hope she was always there to pick us up and believe in us. She's in the same country but I feel like we are worlds apart. I've been so miserable with out her. I decided to give her a call. [Jocelyns POV] I woke up to the sound of a phone ringing. When I woke up I noticed I was asleep in nicks room. It wasn't a dream. I smiled and grabbed the phone. "hello" I answered in a not so pleasant voice. "you were never a morning person where you." I heard him say laughing on the other side. Gosh I missed his laugh. "woobie its 4am." I groaned. "well in NY its 7. So wake up lazy. Besides this is payback for waking me up last night" "fine." I rolled out of bed and walked to his drawers. "woobie do you mind if I borrow some sweats?" I asked digging through even before he gave me permission. "might as well. I bet your already digging through my drawer." I laughed. He knew me all to well. "I promise I wont take any socks." "scouts honor." he said laughing. "scouts honor." "ok well I gotta run. Take care of mom and frank for me ok. Have fun in California while it lasts! I hate that I cant be there." He seemed so sad. "yeah I hate you cant be here either." "bye jo. "bye woobie" Hanging up with him was one of the hardest things to do. I don't know why. I wanted to keep him on the line forever. I walked downstairs to find Ma up. I was surprised. "Ma what are you doing up so early?" she had a huge smile on her face. "we're going to New York!" she semi yelled/whispered. I fell my mouth drop to the floor and my eyes widen. I wanted to scream so loud but I didn't want to wake up frank. "no way!" is all I could get out. "yeah honey. Pa felt bad because he knew how excited you and nick weren't able to see each other. He says Nicholas is miserable and I saw how upset you were last night. So he got you me and Frankie tickets." "when do we leave?" I asked excitedly. I was screaming on the inside. "In about an hour. I was about to go wake you but I knew how tired you were from your trip. You didn't even unpack so that's a good thing. Just grab some a comfy tshirt from nicks room and lets get going. I'll grab Frankie." I didn't need her to say more. I ran up the stairs grabbed nicks Elvis Costello shirt, only because I know it would make him tick, and grabbed my bag and we headed out the door. I was so excited. I was finally going to see him again. [Nicks POV] We finally got some down time and were hanging out in some dressing rooms at some club we were performing at. Kevin and Joe were deep into a competition of video games of course and I was strumming on my guitar trying to write a song. [song in video] Every time you walk in the room Can't help myself I wanna be with you Hit the mic, a quick check one, two Singing out my lungs just to reach you I'm alive And I keep my cool one more time And you just keep on walking by "wow you got it bad huh" Joe said as I stopped playing my guitar. "is it that obvious." "no." Kevin said sarcastically. "boys time to get this show on the roll." I heard my dad say. I sighed. We finished our set and we got some applause it felt like it was kind of forced tho. But thats ok. As I walked out to the side of a stage I felt someone whisper behind me. "hey woobie" I turned around and I couldn't believe my eyes. I think I might have stared at her like a creeper but I didn't know what to do. "earth to woobie." she said waving a hand in front of my face. Her smile made my heart skip a beat. Suddenly Joe came up behind her and picked her up. "JC! ITS YOU ITS REALLY YOU!" Joe swung her around and she laughed. I smiled. I was happy to see her again. She went over to hug Kevin and then my dad. I stood there quietly admiring her beauty. She said her hellos and then walked over to where I was admiring her from afar. "hey rockstar." she said walking up to me. "your wearing my Elvis Costello shirt." I said. "I haven't seen you in ages and that's all you can say to me?" she was laughing. I went and gave her a huge hug. I held her tight never wanting to let go. I took in her familiar sent. I was scared she could feel my heart pounding in my chest. "I missed you" she whispered. I pulled away and gazed into her eyes. You could tell she was somewhat nervous. She couldn't hold my stare and she began to blush. It was now or never nick. I leaned in slowly and kissed her with all the passion you can imagine. "me too" ------------ I'm gonna stop there lol. I know I'm mean hahaha at least they're in the same room right? Lol more tomorrow I promise!
