Church Clothes chords by Kelleigh Bannen

Intro C Am C Am

Verse
C
A pressed shirt, you tuck it in
Am              C
You tie your tie, tie it again
C
I put a little curl in my hair
Am                      C
Pink on my cheeks, barely there
C
A proper skirt, hits at the knee
F
A good sweater in wintergreen
C

You shake the keys downstairs
F
I hit the lights not a minute to spare
        Am      G                       F
Slip a five in the Bible for the offering plate
        Am          G                F
What a beautiful picture we both make

C
You drive, I look out the window
F
It's not right, but nobody says so
Am
We walk  in and head to the same pew
F
And hold hands, just like we're supposed to
C
But last night you slept on the sofa
F
And these days I don't even know ya
Am                  G           F
We fight like hell but nobody knows
F
when we're wearing our church clothes

Verse
C
We stand up, we sing a hymn
F
We say a prayer for other friends
C
We're turning to the Book of John
F
And I'm thinking how I can't go on
        Am                      G              F
But we smile, and we give it our Sunday best
F       Am              G                       F
If we're lost, couldn?t tell by the way we're dressed

C
You drive, I look out the window
F
It's not right but nobody says so
Am
We walk in, I head to the bedroom
F
But you don't, you do what you want to
C
Like last week, when you packed a suitcase
F
And came close to getting your own place
Am              C                  F
Oh that?s the stuff that nobody knows
F                                    Am
when we're wearing our church clothes

Bridge
Am G F
Am
Oh we don't speak
G                  Fm           C
Don't touch as if nobody watching us
Am                      G
Lord knows we've got it down
F
What would they say, if we gave up

C
You drive, I look out the window
F
It's not right but nobody says so
Am              G                       F
We walk in, like we've never been so close
Am              G                       F
Miles apart, but careful that it don't show
F                                       C
when we're wearing our church clothes
