Hey Go Radio fans! This is "Birthday Song" as I figure it. I know there are
other versions that work, but I prefer this structure. To figure it out, I
listened to the bass line in the guitar that starts each little chord
arpeggio.
C: (x32010) v[This is more convenient]
G: (320001) G*: (355433) G**:(x20001)
Am:(002210) Am*:(577555) ^[Use G* if you don't like this where I put it.]
Em:(022000) ^[Gives the leading tone in the right octave. Same for G**]
F: (133211)
He was Csitting on the Gback porch singing, &Amquot;You're My OnlEmy Sunshine"
F G* C
Swinging to songs only he heard in his head
Now he's Ccutting paper sworGds from boxes to Amhang inside his roomEm
F G* C
And watch them spin into the wind above his bed
Singing &Cquot;Take meG down thisAm road I'Emm on
F G* C
It's late and I don't wanna go alone.
CTake me doGwn this roadAm
Em F G* C
I won't be scared, 'cause we can't be scared."
And I'm Csearching for a siGgn that you're still here Am
Em F G* C
And I'm alright but now I'm down here on the ground I think I'll pray
'Cause CTallahassee's fiGne but, Dad, I Ammiss you all the timeEm

And I know you're gone, but not too long
