Also, the Em chord is optional except in the bridge. If you choose not to play it, just play D in it's place.
I think the song sounds better with it, but you can decide for yourself.
This is my first time tabbing chords so let me know what I can fix.
This is happineCss, to be eveGrything at Emonce.D  
 Be unblindCed, be unGlearned, be uEmnbridled and Dunburned.
   C     G     Em    D2X
HCeavy on our Gheels, the rocky Emground we leave Dbehind.
 Tassels Cstreaming from our Gnecks, we cast a Emwake amidst the Dwind.
 We're the roameCrs to the Groad, barebacked, Emspirit and in Dmind.
 OhC, to be Gfree like Dthis.
Chorus:
DThis is Chappiness, to be Geverything at oEmnce.D  
 Be unCblinded, be uGnlearned, be uEmnbridled and uDnburned.
 TChis is Ghappiness. I'm fEmearless and I'm Dfree,
 With the Copen road and the Gworld beneath my Dfeet.
   C     G     Em    D2X
With spClinters in our Gteeth, we're driven Emfrom our parDallels,
 Our path a priCson, bound to Gwalk where countless Emfeet already Dfell.
But there's a wCildness in our Gheart, that we've fEmorgotten in our Dmarch,
 AlCl to be Gfree like Dthis.
Chorus:
DThis is Chappiness, to be Geverything at oEmnce.D  
 Be unCblinded, be uGnlearned, be uEmnbridled and uDnburned.
 TChis is Ghappiness. I'm fEmearless and I'm Dfree,
 With the Copen road and the Gworld beneath my Dfeet.
We're branded Cand we're Gburdened from the Emmoment we are Dborn.
 We're domesCtic and we're dGiscontent, and we're Emgrinding our gums Draw
 Forget your Cfeet and where they Gfall, lift your Emhead, carry Don.
No Cfear, just faith, no bGit, just break the Empath and let it lead Dyou.
 UnCknown, unblind, run fGree, run wild and lEmeave behind what Dholds you down.
CHeavy on our Gheels, the rocky Emground we leave bDehind.
Chorus:
DThis is Chappiness, to be Geverything at oEmnce.D  
 Be unCblinded, be uGnlearned, be uEmnbridled and uDnburned.
 TChis is Ghappiness. I'm fEmearless and I'm Dfree,
 With the Copen road and the Gworld beneath my Dfeet.

C G Em D

This is happiness, to be everything at once.

C G Em D

Be unblinded, be unlearned, be unbridled and unburned.

C G Em D

Heavy on our heels, the rocky ground we leave behind.

C G Em D

Tassels streaming from our necks, we cast a wake amidst the wind.

C G Em D

We're the roamers to the road, barebacked, spirit and in mind.

C G D

Oh, to be free like this.

Chorus:

D C G Em D

This is happiness, to be everything at once.

C G Em D

Be unblinded, be unlearned, be unbridled and unburned.

C G Em D

This is happiness. I'm fearless and I'm free,

C G D

With the open road and the world beneath my feet.

C G Em D

With splinters in our teeth, we're driven from our parallels,

C G Em D

Our path a prison, bound to walk where countless feet already fell.

C G Em D

But there's a wildness in our heart, that we've forgotten in our march,

C G D

All to be free like this.

We're domestic and we're discontent, and we're grinding our gums raw

C G Em D

Forget your feet and where they fall, lift your head, carry on.

C G Em D

No fear, just faith, no bit, just break the path and let it lead you.

C G Em D

Unknown, unblind, run free, run wild and leave behind what holds you down.

C G Em D

Heavy on our heels, the rocky ground we leave behind.

Chorus:

D C G Em D

This is happiness, to be everything at once.

C G Em D
