Chords with lyrics

• Difficulty: Beginner

🎸 Verse 1:
   C majorC            FF
Got a call from my mother who wishes that she was here
     G+G
Couple of cards in the post that I'm readin'
      C majorC             FF
I want the warmth of the summer, the cold too cold to bear
     G+G
The only plus is the sweater I needed
     C majorC          FF
I broke apart from my lover a couple months ago
       G+G
If they were here, then I guess I wouldn't be alone
      C majorC          FF
This is the life in the city and that's the way it goes
      G+G
But it's a fine excuse just to leave it

🎸 Pre-Chorus:
DmDm          C majorC            G+G
 I hit her mom and I asked, "Arе you comin' over "
DmDm          C majorC              G+G
 And all I got was a shrug and then, "I don't know"


🎸 Chorus:
       C majorC         FF
And evеryone I know is hidden away
      G+G
Tryna make their bodies clean again
        C majorC      FF
And they don't want to celebrate
    G+G
Nobody cares this is the day I was born
      C majorC               FF
Always the month when parties come to an end
      G+G
The same excuses from every friend
    C majorC            FF
Another year and now we're here again
    G+G
Nobody cares this is the day I was born


🎸 Post-Chorus:
         C majorC
Another birthday alone
   FF       G+G
La-la-lay, la-la-lay
         C majorC
Another birthday alone
   FF       G+G
La-la-lay, la-la-lay

🎸 Verse 2:
    C majorC           FF
I hit a bar in town, get my account, start a tav
   G+G
Everyday that we're here, well, we're never gettin' back
     C majorC             FF
And so I drink for the confidence 'cause that's what I lack
      G+G
And end up talkin' to strangers and findin' another plaque
    C majorC          FF
I am denyin' in the carpet, spinnin' on my own
     G+G
Watchin' pointless shit and flickin' through my phone
     C majorC         FF
And would April be better? I guess I'll never know
       G+G
I'll take the keys from my pocket and stumble into home


🎸 Pre-Chorus:
  DmDm         C majorC          G+G
And I feel low, but I guess I could feel lower
DmDm           C majorC      G+G
 I'm headin' down and now I'm on a row


🎸 Chorus:
       C majorC         FF
And evеryone I know is hidden away
      G+G
Tryna make their bodies clean again
        C majorC      FF
And they don't want to celebrate
    G+G
Nobody cares this is the day I was born
      C majorC               FF
Always the month when parties come to an end
      G+G
The same excuses from every friend
    C majorC            FF
Another year and now we're here again
    G+G
Nobody cares this is the day I was born

Another birthday alone
