Biography:
The Box Tops were an American band of the 60s that combined soul and rock music into a popular sound epitomized by their famous single "The Letter". The band was fronted by teenaged singer Alex Chilton, and for their studio recordings after "The Letter", consisted solely of Chilton and Memphis studio musicians. For live performances, Chilton was joined by Tom Boggs (drums), Rick Allen (bass), Gary Talley (guitar), and Bill Cunningham (organ). A popular original member before their first hit was Larry Spillman (drums).

The Happy Song
E
Listen here, band up there, on the stand,
A B7 E
Sing a joyful song so we can all sing too
A B7 E
Hum a merry tune to us that fits our mood
A B7 C#m
Simple little feelings well derive from you
A B7 E
Sing us a happy little song that we can dance to
Sing us a song, a song of love and happiness
A flowing, going ride and, oh, please do your best
Light and fast, you know, but still, with tenderness
Sing us a happy little song, now, and we can do the rest
A G#m C#m
We could light the night if we just let feelings flow
F#m B7
Just let ourselves go, don't you know?
Instrumental
We could light the night...
