Bright Eyes – Happy Birthday To Me (Ukulele)

C  - XX0323
Em - 022000

C               Am
All eyes on the calendar

C
Another year I claim of total indifference

C                Am
To here the days pile up

C
With decisions to be made, I'm sure all of them were wrong

  C              Am
Into this song I send myself

    C
And with these drinks I plan to collapse

       C                     Am
And forget this wasted year, these wasted years

C
Devoted friends, they disappear

   D                    C              D
And I'm sorry about the phone call and needing you

                        C
Some decisions you don't make

D                   C                 D
  I guess it's like breathing and not wanting to

                                C
There are some things you can't fake 

C                  Am
 I guess that it's typical

   C
To cling to memories you'll never get back again

C                        Am
 And to sort through old photographs

     C
Of a summer long ago or a friend that you used to know

    C               Am
And there below his frozen face

    C
You wrote the name and that ancient date, that ancient date

        C                       Am
And you can't believe that he's really gone

     C
When all that's left is a fucking song

    D                   C              D 
And I'm sorry about the phone call and waking you

                 C
I know that it's late

    D             C                        D
But thank you for talking because I needed to

                       C
Some things just can't wait
