Well, if [C]I had my way
You'd have a [E]birthday every week
And [F]you'd choose to spend them all with [C]me
I'd come [C]down to the bus stop,
Say [E]you can't go to work
[F]You'd take my hand faithful[C]ly
Then I'd [C]gift wrap my heart
And I'd [E]write you a new song
[F]I'd try to right all your [C]wrongs
I would [C]play with your hair
And sug[E]gest what to wear
And [F]I'd paint a smile where it be[C]longs
But I [Am]know that you're not [E]broken
And I [F]know that you're not [C]bruised
I know I'm [Am]easily for[E]gotten
So [F]Happy Birthday [C]You
Oh and [C]every week I'd take you someplace
[E]You've not been before
[F]I'd try to keep it under [C]wraps
Well we [C]never drove to Paris
And I've [E]never been to Prague
[F]We should try them out, [C]perhaps
And we can [C]document our travels
On a [E]handheld camera
[F]Put them to a theme song of [C]kind
If you've [C]nothing left to show for it
The [E]story never fits
And the [F]notion of the day is under[C]mined
But I [Am]know that you're not [E]broken
And I [F]know that you're not [C]bruised
I know I'm [Am]easily for[E]gotten
So [F]Happy Birthday [C]You
(Trumpet solo)
[C] [E] [F] [C]
[C] [E] [F] [C]
Well when [C]we get home you're tired
But you don't [E]want to go to bed
So you [F]lay in my arms in[C]stead
You'd say to[C]night was just perfection
And I don't [E]want to go to sleep
[F]Can we do the same next [C]week?
But I [Am]know that you're not [E]broken
And I [F]know that you're not [C]bruised
I know I'm [Am]easily for[E]gotten
So [F]Happy Birthday [C]You
Yeah, I [Am]know that you're not [E]broken
And I [F]know that you're not [C]bruised
I know I'm [Am]easily for[E]gotten
So [F]Happy Birthday [C]You
[F]Happy Birthday [C]You
[F]Happy Birthday [C]You
[F]Happy Birthday [C]You
[F]Happy Birthday [C]You
[F]Happy Birthday [C]You
(finish on C)
Enjoy!
