SIXTEEN CANDLES
By Luther Dixon & Allyson R. Khent

Six-teen can-dles make a love-ly light
9 9 -8 7 8 8 -8 7 -6
But not as bright as your eyes to-night
7 7 -8-7 6 -10 -10 9 -9 8
Blow out the can-dles,
9 8 -8 -8 7
make your wish come true
8 8 -8 7 -6
For I’ll be wish-ing that you love me, too
7 7 -8 -7 -6 6 -9 -9 8 -8 7
You’re on-ly six-teen
-10 -10 9 -10 -9
But you’re my teen-age queen
-10 -10 -10 9 -9 8
You’re the pret-ti-est,
8 -9 9 8 -9
Love-li-est girl I’ve ev-er seen
9 8 -9 9 -10 9 8 -8
Six-teen can-dles in my heart will glow
9 8 -8 7 8 8 -8 -8 -6
For ev-er and ev- er for I love you so
7 7 7 -8 -7-6 6 -9 -9 8 -8 7
