Backwards Down The Number Line chords by Phish

D
  Happy Happy oh my friend, blow out candles once again
           C
  Leave the presents all inside, take my hand
       D*
  And lets take a ride backwards down the number line
               Em
  You were eight and I was nine,
               C
  Do you know what happened then?
  C
  Do you know why were still friends?
               G
  Laughing all these many years
                 D
  We pushed through hardships, tasted tears
          C
  Made a promise, one to keep.
             G
  I can still recite it in my sleep
         D*
  everytime a birthday comes
                C
  call your friend and sing a song or whisper it into his ears or
                  G
  write it down, just don't miss a year

CHORUS :
  G
  You decide what it contains, how long it goes but this remains,
       G
  the only rule is it begins, happy happy oh my friend (repeat x4)

SOLO : Em C x2 (during first solo)

BRIDGE :
  C
  And when I see you coming down the line with eyes wide open
   C
  somewhere between the past and future where you drift in time
                 G
  and you can see a different point of view

SOLO : G F C (during second solo)

CHORUS
