Hi there:) So, someone stood Taylor
up on her birthday? How dare they!! They
should've known doing that would fuel her
songwriting! Lol! Let me know what you all
think and have fun!!
[Intro]
Cadd9 G D
[Verse]
Cadd9
You should've been there,
G
Should've burst through the door
D
With that "Baby I'm right here" smile
Cadd9
And it would've felt like
G D
A million little shining stars had just aligned
Cadd9 G D
And I would've been so happy
[Pre-Chorus]
Cadd9
Christmas lights glisten
G
I've got my eye on the door
D
Just waiting for you to walk in
Cadd9
But the time is ticking
G
People ask me how I've been, as I
D
Comb back through my memory
Cadd9 G D
How you said you'd be here
Cadd9 G D
You said you'd, be here
[Chorus]
Cadd9 G
And it was like slow motion
D
Standing there in my party dress
Cadd9 G
In red lipstick
D
With no-one to impress
Cadd9 G
And they're all laughing
D
As I'm looking around the room
Cadd9 G
But there was one thing missing
D -once
And that was the moment I knew
Cadd9 G D
Cadd9 G D
[Verse]
Cadd9
And the hours pass by,
G
Now I just want to be alone,
D
But your close friends always seem to know
Cadd9
When there's something really wrong
G D
So they follow me down the hall
Cadd9
And there in the bathroom
G
I try not to fall apart
D
And the sinking feeling starts
Cadd9 G D
As I say hopelessly "He said he'd be here"
[Chorus]
Cadd9 G
And it was like slow motion
D
Standing there in my party dress
Cadd9 G
In red lipstick
D
With no-one to impress
Cadd9 G
And they're all laughing
D
And asking me about you
Cadd9 G
But there was one thing missing
D
And that was the moment I knew
[Verse]
Cadd9
What do you say when tears are
G
Streaming down your face in front of
D
Everyone you know?
Cadd9 *once
And what do you do
G*
When the one who means the most to you
D*
Is the one who didn't show?
Cadd9 G D
Cadd9 G D
You should've been here,
Cadd9 G D
And I would've been so happy
[Chorus]
Cadd9 G
And it was like slow motion
D
Standing there in my party dress
Cadd9 G
In red lipstick
D
With no-one to impress
Cadd9 G
And they're all sitting around me singing
D
"Happy Birthday To You"
Cadd9 G
But there was one thing missing
D
And that was the moment I knew
Cadd9 G D
Oh, ohh, ohh, ohh, I knew
Cadd9 G D -stop
Oh, ohh, ohh, ohh,
[Outro]
Cadd9 *once
You called me later
G*
And said, "I'm sorry I didn't make it"
D*
And I said, "I'm sorry too"
Cadd9* G* D*
And that was the moment I knew
Have fun and RATE:)
