Happy Returns

	  		C            D       
Hey brother, happy returns 
             Em 
It's been a while now 
                      C 
I bet you thought that I was dead 
C                   D 
But I'm still here, nothing's changed 
           Em 
nothing's changed 

C                D 
Hey brother, I'd love to tell you 
I've been busy 
    Em 
But that would be a lie 
C 
'Cause the truth is 
    D 
The years just pass like trains 
  Em                          C 
I wave but they don't slow down 
              D 
They don't slow down 


C         Am 
too-do-do-do 
      D 
Do-do do-do-do 
        
Dodododo 

C         Am 
too-do-do-do 
   D    
Do do-do-do 


C                      D 
Hey brother, I see the freaks 
                      Em 
Dispossessed on day release 
               C 
Avoiding the police 

C                         D 
I feel I'm falling once again 
                                      Em 
But now there's no one left to catch me 

C                       D 
Hey brother, I feel I'm living in parentheses 
             Em 
And I've got trouble with the bills 
       C 
Do the kids remember me? 

C 
Well I got gifts for them 
D 
And for you more sorrow 
        Em 
But I'm feeling kind of drowsy now 
        C 
So I'll finish this tomorrow
