(A) NEXT SUNDAY DARLIN' IS MY BIRTH -(E7) DAY,
A DAY THAT SHOULD BE FREE FROM (A) CARE,
BEST WISHES AND CON - GRAT - U - (E7) LA - TIONS,
BUT ONLY SORROW FILLS THE (A) AIR.

FIRST CHORUS

WHILE (E7) FRIENDS ARE SINGING HAPPY BIRTH- (A) DAY,
THERE'LL (B7) BE SMILE UPON MY (E7) FACE,
BUT (A) WHEN THEY'RE GONE, THE SMILE WILL (E7) VANISH,
A BROKEN HEART WILL TAKE IT'S (A) PLACE.

ANOTHER YEAR HAS COME AND GONE NOW,
THE PLANS I MADE HAVE GONE A - STRAY,
THE DAY THAT SHOULD BE FILLED WITH LAUGHTER,
WILL ONLY BE ANOTHER DAY.

SECOND CHORUS

THE LITTLE HOUSE WE PLANNED TO - GETHER,
IS EMPTY NOW WITHOUT YOU DEAR,
BUT IN MY DREAMS YOU'RE THERE BE - SIDE ME,
