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.

               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  2X



 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  2X
 

       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.

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
We're branded and we're burdened from the moment we are born.
            C              G                    Em                D
 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
 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.
