Intro: / G+G - - - / - - - - /
G+G (2)
Once a year we celebrate
C majorC G+G
With stupid hats and plastic plates
G+G (2)
The fact that you were able to make
C majorC G+G (hold)
Another trip around the sun
G+G (2)
And the whole clan gathers round
C majorC G+G
And gifts and laughter do abound
G+G (2)
And we let out a joyful sound
C majorC G+G (hold)
And sing that stupid song
G+G C majorC G+G (2)
Happy birthday! Now you're one year older!
G+G C majorC G+G (2)
Happy birthday! Your life still isn't over!
G+G C majorC G+G
Happy birthday! You did not accomplish much
G+G (2)
But you didn't die this year
C majorC G+G
I guess that's good enough
/ G+G - - - / - - - - / C majorC - - - / G+G (hold) /
G+G (2)
So let's drink to your fading health
C majorC G+G
And hope you don't remind yourself
G+G (2)
The chance of finding fame and wealth
C majorC G+G (hold)
Decrease with every year
G+G (2)
Does it feel like you're doing laps
C majorC G+G
And eating food and taking naps
G+G (2)
And hoping that someday perhaps
C majorC G+G (hold)
Your life will hold some cheer
G+G C majorC G+G (2)
Happy birthday! What have you done that matters?
G+G C majorC G+G (2)
Happy birthday! You're starting to get fatter
G+G C majorC G+G
Happy birthday! It's downhill from now on
G+G (2)
Try not to remind yourself
C majorC G+G
Your best years are all gone
/ G+G - - - / - - - - / C majorC - - - / G+G (hold) /
G+G (2)
If cryogenics were all free
C majorC G+G
Then you could live like Walt Disney
G+G (2)
And live for all eternity
C majorC G+G (hold)
Inside a block of ice
G+G (2)
But instead your time is set
C majorC G+G
This is the only life you get
G+G (2)
And though it hasn't ended yet
C majorC G+G (hold)
Sometimes you wish it might
G+G C majorC G+G (2)
Happy birthday! You wish you had more money
G+G C majorC G+G (2)
Happy birthday! Your life's so sad it's funny
G+G C majorC G+G
Happy birthday! How much more can you take?
G+G (2)
But your friends are hungry
C majorC G+G
So just cut the stupid cake
G+G (2) A7A7 (2)
Happy birthday! Happy birthday!
C majorC (2) D7D7 (2)
