C F Am G


[Verse 1]
Am            G    C
I was working at a bar
         Dm            Am           G
A twenty-four year-old saving for a new guitar
Am             G         C
I was late for our first date
     Dm                Am                     G
So I promised you that I would finally graduate


[Pre-Chorus]
F           Am                     C
Funny how a moment could start out small
                 G                            F
And when we look back it's the biggest of them all
            Am                         C
Every happy birthday, each fork in the road
                G
I can't wait to see us when we get old
F  G               C     G            Am
I remember driving up to Brussels for you
    F     G                C          G          Am
The cold December thinking you're too good to be true


[Chorus]
    C          F
You don't even try
        Am              G
But you always make me, always make me
C              F
Time is flying by
        Am              G
But you always make me, always make me
C     F     Am     G
Smile


[Verse 2]
Am              G         C
Remember when I heard the news
      Dm       Am           G
And I realized everything I had to lose
Am                G        C
We didn't have to speak at all
         Dm           Am          G
When you held my hand crying at a funeral


[Pre-Chorus]
F           Am                     C
Funny how a moment could start out small
                 G                            F
And when we look back it's the biggest of them all
            Am                         C
Every happy birthday, each fork in the road
                G
I can't wait to see us when we get old
F  G               C     G            Am
I remember driving up to Brussels for you
    F     G                C          G          Am
The cold December thinking you're too good to be true


[Chorus]
    C          F
You don't even try
        Am              G
But you always make me, always make me
C              F
Time is flying by
        Am              G
But you always make me, always make me
C     F
Smile
    Am             G
You always make me, always make me
C     F     Am     G
Smile


[Bridge]
Am                    G       C
Don't you know you're my best friend
             Dm          Am               G
We're having so much fun I hope it's never gonna end

[Interlude]
C     F     Am     G


[Chorus]
    C         F
You don't even try
        Am               G
But you always make me, always make me
C             F
Time is flying by
        Am               G
But you always make me, always make me
C     F    Am    G     C     F
Smile
    Am              G
You always make me, always make me
C     F  Am  G  C
Smile
