 I've been waiting,  I've been thinking
C/G                    F
 I've been wanting to sing you this song
F                Bdim/D
I know you may not   understand my thoughts
C/G                            F
 But you will know where it's coming from
F              Bdim/D
Grab your guitar   and your maraca
C/G                    F
 Play with me on your wooden drum
F                 Bdim/D
 So Happy Birthday,   but it's my way
C/G                    F
 Maybe one day you'll sing along


CHORUS:
Am                      C/G                  F
  And as you go through life, they may be unkind
            C/G        G            Am
And I won't always be there by your side
             C/G                      F
That's on my mind, yeah that's on my mind
             C/G          G          F
That's on my mind almost all of the time

We're always walking    in the morning
C/G                           F
  And you look up with your beautiful stare
F                     Bdim/D
 And you start talking,   and there's no stopping
C/G                       F
 You say so much you run out of air
F                     Bdim/D
 And then we're running   to tell your mom and
C/G                    F
 We never make it back to our street
F                      Bdim/D
 That's where I wake up,   always the same spot
C/G                  F
 My heart singing a song so sweet


CHORUS:
Am                      C/G
  And as you go through life,
                     F
You will bring such light
             C/G         G          Am
That's how I picture it most of the time
              C/G                       F
That's how my mind, yeah that's how my mind
              C/G            G        Am
That's how my mind keeps my heart in line
              C/G                       F
That's how my mind, yeah that's how my mind
              C/G            G        F
That's how my mind keeps my heart in line
