   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)
