Intro: / G - - - / - - - - /
G (2)
Once a year we celebrate
C G
With stupid hats and plastic plates
G (2)
The fact that you were able to make
C G (hold)
Another trip around the sun
G (2)
And the whole clan gathers round
C G
And gifts and laughter do abound
G (2)
And we let out a joyful sound
C G (hold)
And sing that stupid song
G C G (2)
Happy birthday! Now you're one year older!
G C G (2)
Happy birthday! Your life still isn't over!
G C G
Happy birthday! You did not accomplish much
G (2)
But you didn't die this year
C G
I guess that's good enough
/ G - - - / - - - - / C - - - / G (hold) /
G (2)
So let's drink to your fading health
C G
And hope you don't remind yourself
G (2)
The chance of finding fame and wealth
C G (hold)
Decrease with every year
G (2)
Does it feel like you're doing laps
C G
And eating food and taking naps
G (2)
And hoping that someday perhaps
C G (hold)
Your life will hold some cheer
G C G (2)
Happy birthday! What have you done that matters?
G C G (2)
Happy birthday! You're starting to get fatter
G C G
Happy birthday! It's downhill from now on
G (2)
Try not to remind yourself
C G
Your best years are all gone
/ G - - - / - - - - / C - - - / G (hold) /
G (2)
If cryogenics were all free
C G
Then you could live like Walt Disney
G (2)
And live for all eternity
C G (hold)
Inside a block of ice
G (2)
But instead your time is set
C G
This is the only life you get
G (2)
And though it hasn't ended yet
C G (hold)
Sometimes you wish it might
G C G (2)
Happy birthday! You wish you had more money
G C G (2)
Happy birthday! Your life's so sad it's funny
G C G
Happy birthday! How much more can you take?
G (2)
But your friends are hungry
C G
So just cut the stupid cake
G (2) A7 (2)
Happy birthday! Happy birthday!
C (2) D7 (2)
Happy birthday, dear...
