Casting Crowns - Just Another Birthday: chords

         D#     F
Sixteen finds me
             D#                 F
Blowing out candles and making wishes
          A#      D#
And all around me
        A#                   Gm
Is everyone but the one I'm wishing for
    D#           F
And he sent me flowers
    Gm              A#
And gift-wrapped excuses
        D#           F
From a daddy whose daughter¨
         Gm       A#
Wants to see him again

Chorus:
    D#        A#
And I know, I know
      D#          A#
It's just another birthday
    D#      A#
But I guess I thought
  F
This would be the one
              D#        A#
When he would call me, see me
 Gm          D#
Hold me and free me
          D#           A#    F
But it's just another birthday
             Gm D# A#
And I'll be fine
F        Gm D# A# F
I'll be fine

Nineteen finds me
And I'm wild-eyed and wide open
I gave myself away to love
But backseat promises fade like a mist
I'm screaming at the midnight air
Everyone hears me but I don't care
My heart's clenched just like a fist
Because, people, I didn't ask for any of this

Chorus

        D#
In the company of strangers
In a cold and sterile room
      Gm
All alone with a child inside me
And I don't know what to do
D#
Jesus, can You hear me
Come and heal my brokenness
        Cm
Put the pieces back together
          D#
And be a Father to the fatherless

Twenty-one finds me
Blowing out candles and making wishes
And all around me
My barefoot princess twirls and sings
It's so amazing
Looking back at all God's brought us through
You are my happy birthday
And you were born to break the chains

Chorus:
Now I know, I know
It's not just another birthday
Because I'm here, she's here
And look how far we've come
Since you've called me, saw me
Held me and free me
Thank you, Lord, for another birthday
We'll be fine
We'll be fine
