Your Birthday Song

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 ) C G Am Em he was sitting on the back porch singing , "you’re my only sunshine" F G * C swinging to songs only he heard in his head C G Am Em now he’s cutting paper swords from boxes to hang inside his room F G * C and watch them spin into the wind above his bed C G Am Em singing "take me down this road i’m on F G * C it’s late and i don’t wanna go alone . C G Am take me down this road Em F G * C i won’t be scared , ’cause we can’t be scared .
