Gabrielle Aplin - If It Makes You Happy (Sheryl Crow Cover)

My cover version of ‘If It Makes You Happy’ by Sheryl Crow is OUT NOW 💙 And it’s part of my new EP ‘Writers Block Pt 1” which will be out on April 18th 2024. 

The EP is a collection of covers that were all originally released in the 90’s. I love love writing songs but sometimes you need to let the field lie fallow. I decided to dive into a collection of my favourite songs from the decade I was born. I’ve called it part 1 because maybe I’ll do another one on my next fallow! I hope you enjoy xxx

Lyrics:
I been long, a long way from here
Put on a poncho and played for mosquitoes
And drank 'til I was thirsty again
We went searchin', through thrift store jungles
Found Geronimo's rifle, Marilyn's shampoo
And Benny Goodman's corset and pen
Okay, I made this up
I promised I would never give up

If it makes you happy
It can't be that bad
If it makes you happy
Then why the hell are you so sad?

You get down, real low down
You listen to Coltrane, derail your own train
Well, who hasn't been there before?
Okay, I still get stoned
I'm not the kind of girl you'd take home

But if it makes you happy
It can't be that bad
If it makes you happy
Then why the hell are you so sad?
If it makes you happy
It can't be that bad
If it makes you happy
Then why the hell are you so sad?
Why the hell are you so sad?
Why the hell are you so sad?
Oh

We've been far, far away from here
Put on a poncho and played for mosquitoes
And everywhere in between
If it makes you happy
