Intro: G

    G                          Cm
One day you'll need someone to dress you
          D                          G  G/F#
You'll be spilling food down on your face
    Em                         Am7
The next day a priest will God bless you 
       C                   D Dsus D
And it won't mean that you sneezed
        C       G
But the time in between 
   C           G
Is lost like a dream
     E7                        Am7
Your melancholy mood comes too late
   C             D
So pick that old ass of yours
G          C
Up off the floor
    C          Dsus4    G
For tonight we celebrate

G/C G/B G/A

        G        Gsus7
And the years go by
       G6                    Gsus7
And we don't know where they went
        C        Cmaj7
We just let them fly
                 C6         Cmaj7
'Cause they were all heaven sent
         Am       Asus2
We're on borrowed time
       Am                 Asus2
And we still owe half the rent
                   G
For soaking up the sunshine
           G        Gsus7
'Til we're dead and gone
         G6            Gsus7
We will laugh until we drop
            C        Cmaj7
Here's your birthday song
         C6          Cmaj7
May your party never stop
        Am       Asus2
Singing on and on
       Am                 Asus2
We go stumbling down the block
               G
Soaking up the good wine

[CONTINUE PATTERN]

We're covered in silver confetti
There's bottles all over the floor
Just because your bank account's empty 
It don't mean that you're poor
The nights just like this
Make me feel like I'm rich
Like the fire still burns in my core
So raise that old glass of yours
Up towards the sky
We're not counting anymore

G/C G/B G/A

        G        Gsus7
And the years go by
       G6                    Gsus7
And we don't know where they went
        C        Cmaj7
We just let them fly
                 C6         Cmaj7
'Cause they were all heaven sent
         Am       Asus2
We're on borrowed time
       Am                 Asus2
And we still owe half the rent
                   G
For soaking up the sunshine
           G        Gsus7
'Til we're dead and gone
         G6            Gsus7
We will laugh until we drop
            C        Cmaj7
Here's your birthday song
         C6          Cmaj7
May your party never stop
        Am       Asus2
Singing on and on
       Am                 Asus2
We go stumbling down the block
               G
Soaking up the good wine
