Chords for John McCutcheon - Cut the Cake (Birthday Song)

[G] _ _ _ [C] _ [G] _ _ _ _
We're gonna let second grade out early today
Which made little Mikey kinda blue
You see he just turned seven years old that day
And he thought he'd get a party at [Em] school
[D] He walked to his [G] house and he's taking off his [D] guard
There's chairs and [G] tables all over the yard
And his friends [C] jumped up [G] and they hollered real hard
Happy birthday to you
It makes me think of the good old days
Happy birthday to you
You sure grew out of your baby ways
Happy birthday to you
[D] Seventh [G] birthday we wish you many more
Help and wealth and friends by the store
Cup the cake and let's eat some more
Happy birthday to you
Mike's _ _ _ _ _ _ 22 [C] now and [G] he's working for his pop
[D] And his head's full of business [G] through and through
They're putting in a whole new system at the shop
And he forgot he had a birthday due
He got back home and he's taking off his guard
[D] There's chairs and [G] tables all over the yard
And his friends jumped [D] up and [G] they hollered real hard
Happy birthday to you
It makes me think of the good old days
Happy birthday to you
You sure grew out of your baby ways
Happy birthday to you
23rd birthday we wish you many [D] more
Help and wealth [G] and friends by the store
Cup the cake and let's eat some more
Happy birthday to you

_ _ _ it's old man Michael in a rocking chair
Admiring the view
He's still got all his teeth
And he's still got all his hair
And today he's 92
[Em]
[D] He turns in [G] his seat and he's taking off guard
[D] There's chairs and tables [G] all over the yard
And his friends jumped [C] up and they [G] hollered real hard
Happy [D] [G] birthday to you
It makes me think of the good old days
Happy birthday to you
You sure grew out of your baby ways
Happy birthday to [D] you
