Birthday gal, did you wish yet

Birthday gal, do you wish that
D F# G D A
There weren't quite as many candles that you had to blow
Hair falls down all around the eyes that close
She might wear them earrings, but she won't wear the clothes
She'll hang 'em up with all the ones that don't fit no more
I thought this was a party, come on, let's lighten up
No one gets a slice until we make the first cut
No we'll leave the lights down, she's running out and this is here
