C
You should've been there
G
Should've burst through the door
D
With that Baby I'm right here smile
C
And it would've felt like
G D
A million little shining stars had just aligned
C G D
And I would've been so happy
C
Christmas lights glisten
G
I've got my eye on the door
D
Just waiting for you to walk in
C
But the time is ticking
G
People ask me how I've been as I
D
Comb back through my memory
C G D
How you said you'd be here
C G D
You said you'd be here
C G
And it was like slow motion
D
Standing there in my party dress
C G
In red lipstick
D
With no-one to impress
C G
And they're all laughing
D
As I'm looking around the room
C G
But there was one thing missing
D -once
And that was the moment I knew
C G D
C G D
C
And the hours pass by
G
Now I just want to be alone
D
But your close friends always seem to know

Standing there in my party dress
C G
In red lipstick
D
With no-one to impress
C G
And they're all laughing

And asking me about you
C G
But there was one thing missing
D
And that was the moment I knew
C
What do you say when tears are
G
Streaming down your face in front of
D
Everyone you know
Cadd9 once
And what do you do
G*
When the one who means the most to you
D*
Is the one who didn't show
C G D

Happy Birthday To You
C G
But there was one thing missing

C G D
Oh ohh ohh ohh I knew
C G D -stop
Oh ohh ohh ohh

And I said I'm sorry too
C* G* D*
And that was the moment I knew
