Lyrics
Description
[Intro – Clean Guitar Picking]
Am – F – C – G (x2)
(gentle, atmospheric, like the opening of “Like a Stone”)
[Verse 1]
Am F
Forty-eight candles, the fire still burns
C G
Louis, you shine as the whole world turns
Am F
Through every high, through every low
C G
With you beside me, my love still grows
[Chorus]
F C
Happy birthday, Louis, this song’s for you
G Am
The man I’ve walked my whole life through
F C
Every day, my heart still knows
G Am
You’re the rock where my love grows
[Verse 2]
Am F
We built a story, page after page
C G
Through every season, through every stage
Am F
Your strength’s the anchor, your heart’s the flame
C G
Forever my partner, I’m glad you came
[Chorus]
F C
Happy birthday, Louis, this song’s for you
G Am
The man I’ve walked my whole life through
F C
Every day, my heart still knows
G Am
You’re the rock where my love grows
[Bridge – Build Up, Vocals Soaring]
Dm Am
Let the candles shine tonight
F C
We’ve still got dreams, we’ve still got light
Dm Am
Forty-eight and still so true
F G
The best years are ahead with you
[🎸 Guitar Solo – 16 bars]
(Emotional, sustained bends in A minor. Soulful like “Like a Stone” — let the notes breathe. First half soft and reflective, second half rises with passion, before dropping back into the chorus.)

Happy birthday, Louis, this song’s for you

The man I’ve walked my whole life through
