  VERSE 1

        C            G          F
    The day that you died was a good day.
        C                G           F
    You said that it was better than Oprah's best birthday.
        C          G        F
    But instead of having a wake,
    C                G          F
    Lots and lots of people ate blended birthday cake.

  CHORUS

       F              C             G
    So goodbye twenty-nine-year-old John.
    F             C            G
    You should be proud of the awards you won.
           C         G              F
    Though silver is not as good as gold.
    D                 C        G
    Oh my God, you're 30 years old.

  VERSE 2

             C             G              F
    Well you started out obsessed with Ze Frank and lonelygirl.
        C          G        F
    But then you decided to jump into their world.
        C           G            F
    And somehow you dragged your brother in it with you,
        C            G        F
    and started this thing we call Brotherhood Two.

  CHORUS

       F              C             G
    So goodbye twenty-nine-year-old John.
    F             C            G
    You should be proud of the awards you won.
           C         G              F
    Though silver is not as good as gold.
    D                 C        G
    Oh my God, you're 30 years old.

  VERSE 3

              C         G             F
    Well your eye got infected and it threatened to explode.
        C                G         F
    You found yourself a yard that needed to be mowed
            C              G              F
    And you got yourself a house, and you got yourself a Wii
        C           G             F
    And you and the Yeti had your first anniversary.
  
  CHORUS

       F              C             G
    So goodbye twenty-nine-year-old John.
    F             C            G
    You should be proud of the awards you won.
           C         G              F
    Though silver is not as good as gold.
    D                 C        G
    Oh my God, you're 30 years old.
    D                 C        G
    Oh my God, you're 30 years old.
    D                 C        G
    Oh my God, you're 30 years old.
    
  OUTRO    

    D                 C
    Oh my God, you're 30.
          G
    Years old.
