  C                G             Am            Em                  G        F   G
I was watching the news from the movie theater bar and daydreaming of you.
   C               G       Am      Em                  G                 F   G
No I?ve never been good at paying attention, but I?m learning to. 
  C          G          Am           Em            G               F   G
With my eyes glued, I?m watching the tube, but I?m not listening. 
   C             G         Am            Em             F
Do you ever wake up in the middle of the night and find yourself wishing 
G                           C                        G                         C
that he?d walk in the room, sweep you off your feet, kiss you on the cheek and tell you he loves you? 
G                  C                G        F    G
Don?t we all wish that it were that easy? 
   C                  G           Am         Em         G                   F   G
So I walked home from the movies, sat on the couch, and turned on the TV. 
  C                G        Am          Em         G             F    G
I?ve heard so many stories, all of them ended with you and me. 
   C           G         Am           Em        G                  F   G
So I try to be cool, but darlin? this feeling?s hard to explain. 
  C                G        Am          Em         F
I?ve heard so many stories, all of them ended with your name. 
G                       C                       G                C
so you lay in your bed, watch Dawn Of The Dead, and dream of the end of days 
G                                  C                           G      F   G
when he?d walk in the room and say ?Come with me, I know the way.? 
  C   G   Am   Em    G        F   G   
So Haaaaaaaaaaaaappy Birthday baby, 
  C            G     Am       Em          G         F   G
you?re so much older than you thought you would be. 
  C   G   Am   Em    G        F   G   
So Haaaaaaaaaaaaappy Birthday baby, 
  C            G     Am       Em          G         F   G

  C            G     Am       Em          G         F   G   C
