Aint It Your Birthday

[G]  [D]  [D]  [D7]  [G]

[G]Well I bet youre surprised to see me right now
[D]I bet you didnt think that I would remember how

Bet you thought I missed you cause the fields aint plowed
And the wee[D7]ds covered up the si[G]gn

[C]Hey well aint it your birthday and why arent you smiling?
[G]I just drove 250 miles In th[D]e middle of the night
On an empty tank, dodging [D7]deer along the w[G]ay
[C]On to central Virginia, Moonlight Byway
[G]Brought to you by this small-town always
[D]Thought I could come home to, [D7]oh but I guess I was wr[G]ong

Why in the world are you blocking the doorway
I wanna come inside and sing happy birthday
Say hi to your momma, eat a piece of cake
And tell your little brother dirty jokes
I wanna like to everybody bout the star I am Big city life that Im livin
All of the money that theyre trying to give me
Just to sign a couple compact discs

Hey hey well aint it your birthday, then why arent you smiling?
I just drove 250 miles in the middle of the night, on an empty tank
Dodging deer along the way
On to central Virginia, moonlight byway
Brought to you by a small-town always thought I could
Come home to, oh but I guess I was wrong

Is it one of those times when you think I should back down
Just let it go instead of slamming my foot down
Bow my head at the feet of the Queen, instead of taking out a prison guard
Keeping inside all the things that Im feeling
Never leading anybody into believing, my attitude and I are making a deal
And Im trying to better myself

Hey hey well aint it your birthday, then why arent you smiling?
I just drove 250 miles in the middle of the night, on an empty tank
Dodging deer along the way
On to central Virginia, moonlight byway
Brought to you by a small-town always thought I could
Come home to, oh but I guess I was wrong
