*Intro*
E minorEm
*Verse 1*
E minorEm
We've been friends for thirty years
A minorAm
and I'm not always the best at bringing you Birthday cheer.
E minorEm
In fact, most years I don't even get you a gift
BB
But this year, I'm giving you an awesome guitar riff!
*Awesome guitar riff*
E minorEm
A minorAm
That's a guitar riff!
Am* E minorEm
It also doubles as your Birthday gift.
BB
That's your Birthday gift.
It also doubles as a guitar riff...
*Verse 2*
E minorEm
Working together, we see a lot of each other.
A minorAm
You might say it's almost like we're brothers.
E minorEm
And just like family, we sometimes fight.

Well, I'll admit that at least ten percent of the time... you are RI-I-IGHT!
*Chorus*
E minorEm A minorAm
It's your Birthday! You're thirty-five.

And that's halfway to seventy. And seventy's when you die,
E minorEm
Seventy's when you die.
*Verse 3*
E minorEm
So live it up and do what you please.

'Cause in ten years, you're gonna have to replace both of your knees.

Enjoy this here Birthday song.

'Cause in the overall scheme of things... Brother, you don't have long.
*Chorus*

Seventy's when you die.
