Birthday Guitar Chords Maisie Peters
[Verse 1]
G D
You would always show up late
G D
A deck of excuses in your hands
Em G D
I would be the first to claim I didn’t mind
G D
I understand
G D
I put all my songs into a tape
G D
All my words you held inside your hand
Em G D
And I don’t think you ever even listened to them once
G D
I understand
[Pre-Chorus]
Em G Bm
Waiting around, still halfway hopeful that you’ll show
Em G Bm A
You said you’d call, of course you won’t, I should’ve known
[Chorus]
Bm G
You’re not here again, I’m not surprised
D F#m
I hate how long it took to realize
Bm G
You don’t remember or you just don’t care
D A
Today’s my birthday
Bm G
And you’re still not there
D A
You’re still not there
[Verse 2]
G D
Sat crossed legged by the phone
G D
It’s 2 AM, the candles all burned out
Em G D
And I could pretend that it’s okay
G D
I understand, but I don’t
[Pre-Chorus]
Em G Bm
Waited around, I should’ve known, you wouldn’t show
Em G Bm A
And I’m just a fool who spent her birthday all alone
[Chorus]
Bm G
You’re not here again, I’m not surprised
D F#m
I hate how long it took to realize
Bm G
You don’t remember or you just don’t care
D A
Today’s my birthday
Bm G
And you’re still not there
D A
You’re still not there
[Bridge]
Em G A Bm G
I never asked for anything more than one happy birthday
Em G A Bm G
I never asked for anything more than happy birthday
[Chorus]
Bm G
You’re not here again, I’m not surprised
D F#m
I hate how long it took to realize
Bm
That you don’t remember, do you?
G
Or you don’t care
D A
Today’s my birthday
Bm G
And you’re still not there
D A
You’re still not there
[Outro]
Bm G
You’re still not there
D A
You’re still not there
