Just A Dream chords by Carrie Underwood (Ver. 2)

Sub Am7 for all the Am, and C9 for the C if you want, adds a little to the song.

G
It was two weeks after the day she turned eighteen
               Em
All dressed in white
                         G
Going to the church that night
            G
She had his box of letters in the passenger seat
              G
Sixpence in a shoe, something borrowed, something blue

             Am
And when the church doors opened up wide

She put her veil down
                   G
Trying to hide the tears

Oh she just couldn't believe it
          C
She heard trumpets from the military band
        D
And the flowers fell out of her hand


G
Baby why'd you leave me

Why'd you have to go?
      Am
I was counting on forever, now I'll never know
D
I can't even breathe
              G
It's like I'm looking from a distance

Standing in the background
Am
Everybody's saying, he's not coming home now
              D
This can't be happening to me
                      G
This is just a dream

    G
The preacher man said let us bow our heads and pray
                     G
Lord please lift his soul, and heal this hurt
          G
Then the congregation all stood up and sang
            G
The saddest song that she ever heard


          Am
Then they handed her a folded up flag
        G
And she held on to all she had left of him

Oh, and what could have been
             C
And then the guns rang one last shot
       D
And it felt like a bullet in her heart


G
Baby why'd you leave me

Why'd you have to go?
      Am
I was counting on forever, now I'll never know
D
I can't even breathe
              G
It's like I'm looking from a distance

Standing in the background
Am
Everybody's saying, he's not coming home now
              D
This can't be happening to me
         G
This is just a dream


D


     C
Oh, Baby why'd you leave me

Why'd you have to go?
      C
I was counting on forever, now I'll never know
         D
Oh, I'll never know
              G
It's like I'm looking from a distance

Standing in the background
Am
Everybody's saying, he's not coming home now
              D
This can't be happening to me
         D
This is just a dream


             D
Oh, this is just a dream
  Em
Just a dream
