Birthday chords by Maisie Peters

Chords with lyrics

verse 1
GbGb                      DbDb
You would always show up late
GbGb                       DbDb
A augmentedA deck of excuses in your hands
EbmEbm            GbGb       DbDb
I would be the first to claim I didn't mind
       GbGb         DbDb
I understand
GbGb                         DbDb
I put all my songs into a tape
GbGb                               DbDb
All my words you held inside your hand
    EbmEbm               GbGb        DbDb
And I don't think you ever even listened to them once
       GbGb         DbDb
I understand

Pre-Chorus
         EbmEbm                  GbGb                 BbmBbm
Waiting around, still halfway hopeful that you'll show
               EbmEbm                 GbGb                 BbmBbm    AbAb
You said you'd call, of course you won't, I should've known


BbmBbm                   GbGb
You're not here again, I'm not surprised
DbDb                     F minorFm
I hate how long it took to realize
BbmBbm                   GbGb
You don't remember or you just don't care
DbDb                  AbAb
Today's my birthday
           BbmBbm       GbGb
And you're still not there
       DbDb        AbAb
You're still not there


verse 2
GbGb                      DbDb
Sat crossed legged by the phone
GbGb                       DbDb
It's 2 AM, the candles all burned out
EbmEbm            GbGb       DbDb
And I could pretend that it's okay
       GbGb         DbDb
I understand, but I don't

Pre-Chorus
         EbmEbm                  GbGb                 BbmBbm
Waited around, I should've known, you wouldn't show
               EbmEbm                 GbGb                 BbmBbm    AbAb
And I'm just a fool who spent her birthday all alone


BbmBbm                   GbGb
You're not here again, I'm not surprised
DbDb                     F minorFm
I hate how long it took to realize
BbmBbm                   GbGb
You don't remember or you just don't care
DbDb                  AbAb
Today's my birthday
           BbmBbm       GbGb
And you're still not there
       DbDb        AbAb
You're still not there


Bridge
EbmEbm               GbGb                  AbAb BbmBbm    GbGb
I never asked for anything more than one happy birthday
EbmEbm               GbGb                  AbAb BbmBbm    GbGb
I never asked for anything more than happy birthday


BbmBbm                   GbGb
You're not here again, I'm not surprised
DbDb                     F minorFm
I hate how long it took to realize
BbmBbm
That you don't remember, do you?
GbGb
Or you don't care
DbDb                  AbAb
Today's my birthday
           BbmBbm       GbGb
And you're still not there
       DbDb        AbAb
You're still not there


Outro
       BbmBbm       GbGb
You're still not there
       DbDb        AbAb
You're still not there
