Backwards Down The Number Line

Intro : G C G D happy happy oh my friend , blow out candles once again Em Em D C leave the presents all inside , take my hand G D * and lets take a ride backwards down the number line Em you were eight and i was nine , D * ( a string 0 - 2 - 3 ) C do you know what happened then? C do you know why were still friends? G laughing all these many years D we pushed through hardships , tasted tears Em Em D C made a promise , one to keep . G i can still recite it in my sleep D * everytime a birthday comes Em C call your friend and sing a song or whisper it into his ears or G write it down , just don’t miss a year Chorus : G F C G you decide what it contains , how long it goes but this remains , F C G the only rule is it begins , happy happy oh my friend ( repeat x4 ) Solo : Em C x2 ( during first Solo ) Bridge : Bm C and when i see you coming down the line with eyes wide open Bm C somewhere between the past and future where you drift in time D G and you can see a different point of view Solo : G F C ( during second Solo ) Chorus ( note : the D * has a little hammer/pull off )
