M. Cooley
Album: Brighter Than Creation's Dark


CHORUS:
N/C                         D               A
It's always Lisa's birthday when I get that call
      D            A                                 E
She's got no money for a cab, she's way too drunk to walk
A                                    D               A
Lisa's had more birthdays than there are sad country songs
      D                  A               Bm     E        A
About tryin' to love two women, and only takin' one girl home


BREAK: A  D  A  D  A  Bm  E  A

       E                                       D          A
It's a good thing that her dancin' shoes don't run on gasoline
          D                             A                  E
She could dry up Texas in one night the way she feels that beat
   D                           A                D
If I don't find them under the bed we make love on
      A                                      Bm      E         A     A7
She's lighting Lisa's candles and they'll be burning all night long

   D                    A
So happy birthday Lisa, good evening Jim Beam
                  C#m         Bm                E
Goodnight all you socialites, don't wait up for me
D                                 A                   D
I'll be out way past the time the scene's no sight to see
       A                               Bm        E         A
'Cause ya'll don't live with Lisa, and she don't stay with me


SOLO: A  D  A  D  A  E  A  D  A  D  A  Bm  E  A


CHORUS:
It's always Lisa's birthday when I get that call
Her car's not where she parked it, it's with her wallet and her phone
Lisa's had more birthdays than there are sad country songs
About tryin' to love two women and only taking one girl home

D               A             Bm      E      D    A
I get older and Lisa keeps on turning twenty-one
