Happy Birthday My Olde Friend Chords

   
Another great voltaire song, as usual chords aren't difficult but the timing is. 
Not sure about the C#s etc in the chorus, if anyone has a better version please 
submit it, I only wrote this because I couldnt find any chords for it on the internet. 



Strum Dm (10th fret strings 1, 2, 3)
[ Tab from: https://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/v/voltaire/happy_birthday_my_olde_friend_crd.html ]
Grab the chair boys, we got another bucket kicker!
Dm
Happy birthday my olde friend
Gm
It seems this horrorshow will never end
Dm
Any moment your last breath
A                                Dm (continue strumming)
Here is to another day closer to death!
Dm
Your cake is on the table
Dm
and it is awfully bright
Gm
cos there's so many candles on top
Dm
and you are so decrepit
Dm
Your chest so tight
A                           A               Dm
when you blow them out your lungs are gonna pop
Dm            
And you can not complain each time you feel a pain
Gm
cos you have arthritis and gout
Dm
and when you start kavetchin' all your teeth fall out
A
so have another cigarette
A
Have another beer!
A                   C#            D
Raise your glass to one more year Gone!

Dm
Any moment your last breath
A
Here is to another day closer to death!
Dm
Your skin is so worn out and old, 
Gm
all over your body it's saggin'
Dm
especially loose is your old caboose
A
you're draggin' it behind you in a wagon
Dm
and you're an alcoholic and you're blind and deaf
Gm
and you have alzheimers i'll bet!
Dm
You're too old to remember

but you're too drunk to forget
    A
so have another cigarette!
A
Have another beer
A          A        C#             D
Raise your glass to one more year Gone!

Happy birthday my olde friend
Gm
It seems this horrorshow will never end
Dm
Any moment your last breath
A
Here is to another day closer to death!
Gm                           Dm
You're so old you smell like dust
Gm                      Dm
Now your bones begin to rust
Gm                         Dm
see that face it's full of wrinkles
A
so have another cigarette
A
have another beer
A          A        C#             D
Raise that chair to One More Year! Hey!
