Verse 1:

C F Got a call from my mother who wishes that she was here G Couple of cards in the post that I'm readin' C F I want the warmth of the summer, the cold too cold to bear G The only plus is the sweater I needed C F I broke apart from my lover a couple months ago G If they were here, then I guess I wouldn't be alone C F This is the life in the city and that's the way it goes G But it's a fine excuse just to leave it

Pre-Chorus

Dm C G I hit her mom and I asked, 'Arе you comin' over?' Dm C G And all I got was a shrug and then, 'I don't know'
C F And evеryone I know is hidden away G Tryna make their bodies clean again C F And they don't want to celebrate G Nobody cares this is the day I was born C F Always the month when parties come to an end G The same excuses from every friend C F Another year and now we're here again G Nobody cares this is the day I was born C Another birthday alone F G La-la-lay, la-la-lay C Another birthday alone F G La-la-lay, la-la-lay

Verse 2:

C F I hit a bar in town, get my account, start a tav G Everyday that we're here, well, we're never gettin' back C F And so I drink for the confidence 'cause that's what I lack G And end up talkin' to strangers and findin' another plaque C F I am denyin' in the carpet, spinnin' on my own G Watchin' pointless shit and flickin' through my phone C F And would April be better? I guess I'll never know G I'll take the keys from my pocket and stumble into home

Pre-Chorus

Dm C G And I feel low, but I guess I could feel lower Dm C G I'm headin' down and now I'm on a row
C F And evеryone I know is hidden away G Tryna make their bodies clean again C F And they don't want to celebrate G Nobody cares this is the day I was born C F Always the month when parties come to an end G The same excuses from every friend C F Another year and now we're here again G Nobody cares this is the day I was born C Another birthday alone F G La-la-lay, la-la-lay
( C F G ) ( C F G )

Pre-Chorus

Dm C G I feel low, but I guess I could feel lower Dm C G I'm headin' down and now I'm on a row
C F And evеryone I know is hidden away G Tryna make their bodies clean again C F And they don't want to celebrate G Nobody cares this is the day I was born C F Always the month when parties come to an end G The same excuses from every friend C F Another year and now we're here again G Nobody cares this is the day I was born C Another birthday alone F G La-la-lay, la-la-lay C Another birthday alone F G C La-la-lay, la-la-lay
