[Verse 1] Morning comes in slow Coffee by the sink Your old boots at the door And a million things to think You laugh with that same face That taught me how to stand Every little fix you made Was a promise from your hand [Pre-Chorus] So here’s to the years And the road you carried Here’s to the man Who made our house feel steady [Chorus] Happy birthday, Dad Happy birthday, Dad We’re singing loud for you Happy birthday, Dad Happy birthday, Dad Happy birthday, Dad You held us up so long Now let us hold you back [Verse 2] Scratches on your watch From the work you’ve done Grease on your sleeves And a joke for everyone You never asked for much Just a seat and time But you gave us all a home Built line by line [Pre-Chorus] So here’s to the laughs And the long good nights Here’s to your name Burning warm in our lives [Chorus] Happy birthday, Dad Happy birthday, Dad We’re singing loud for you Happy birthday, Dad Happy birthday, Dad Happy birthday, Dad You held us up so long Now let us hold you back [Bridge] If I sound like you It’s because you stayed In the way I love In the words I say And if the years go by Like they always do I’ll keep this song alive Just to thank you [Final Chorus] Happy birthday, Dad Happy birthday, Dad We’re singing loud for you Happy birthday, Dad Happy birthday, Dad Happy birthday, Dad Here’s to your heart today And all the love you gave Happy birthday, Dad Happy birthday, Dad We’re singing loud for you Happy birthday, Dad
