[Intro 1]
[D][C#][F#m]
[A]

[Verse 1]
11th [D]of May,
today is your [C#]birthday
[Em]Wherever you may be
and that place we [Bm]all will go someday
I think of your [D]mama,
I think of your [C#]brother
Your [Em]daddy said you left
before you [Bm]really went away
And you went [D]away[C#]
But we [D]all make a mess of living
We all try [C#]to carry on
We try [F#m]to make the best of it
until [Asus4]the day we're done
[A]We've all got a h[D]urt we're hiding
We've all got [C#]someone we mourn
For me [F#m]I am just grateful,
I am grate[Asus4]ful
You were [A]born, you were [D]born,
you were born, you were [C#]born
Last time I [Bm]saw [D]you in o[C#]ur apartment
[Em]Putting everything you owned
into a [Bm]bag slung on your back
I found some [D]pictures,
we were just [C#]kids, yeah
[Em]Playing hard at grown -ups
till our [Bm]problems got too big
And you know that they [D]did[C#]
We all [D]make a mess of living
We all try [C#]to carry on
We try [F#m]to make the best of it
Until [Asus4]the day we're done
[A]We've all got som[D]ewhat
we're hiding
We've all got [C#]somewhat we're more
For [F#m]me, I am just grateful
I'm just grate[Asus4]ful you were born
[A]You were bor[D]n, you were born,
you were [C#]born[F#m][Asus4]
[A]I can s[D]ee you in the half -light
[C#]Laughing like it's alright
[F#m]Frozen in a moment
That [Asus4]time's on your side
[A]I see you[D] when I close my eyes
May[C#]be we're just ghosts now
May[F#m]be we don't rea[A]lize
[Asus4]Mmm, than[A]k God you were born
[D]You were born, you were born
[C#]You were born,
thank God you were born
[F#m]You were born, you were born
[A]You were born, thank God you were born
[D]You were born, you were bor[C#]n
Thank God [F#m]you were born
