E minorEm

   A minorAm
he met her at a night club,
    E minorEm
she couldn't keep the beat
	     A minorAm
she wore her grandma's prom dress
	   E minorEm
wrapping slippers on her feet
	  G+G
he took a shot of something strong to make him feel less weak
	    A minorAm
and so the story goes...
	FF
there's something to be said about
G+G
trading stories of when you're eight years old
   G+G
he had his first stitches when he bit an ice cream bowl
    E minorEm
she had her first kiss in a swimming hole
	E minorEm
so the story goes...
	 E minorEm
and the days grew long
		   A minorAm
and the wine was overflowing
			   E minorEm
and she knew she was in love
		      E minorEm
because nobody ever hugged her like that,
E minorEm
hugged her like that
E minorEm
hugged her like that
E minorEm
hugged her like that
     A minorAm
they moved into a school bus
	    E minorEm
just cause it seemed like fun
	  A minorAm
she said i like the way you touch me

	     G+G
it makes me feel like i have no skeleton
E minorEm
and so the story goes...
	     A minorAm
and I've seen photographs and videotapes
	E minorEm
of that decent home, that loving place
    E minorEm
and it's about time two minds combine
	  E minorEm
in such a fine, fine way
		E minorEm
and may your lives be  long
	      E minorEm
and may your wishes all be simple
	      E minorEm
and may your hearts stay strong

(strum muted strings with rhythm)

E minorEm
tucked in a bed, you see the ghost of your teddy bear
E minorEm
check under the covers just to make sure he's still sleeping there
E minorEm
turn wedding gowns to angel clothes for the baby to wear
E minorEm
turn wedding gowns to angel clothes for the baby to wear
A minorAm
she rides him like the state fair
A minorAm
they make love like two solar flares
E minorEm
and carry like they really care that they're going to make it
A minorAm
He wants to die in the place where she first said i love you
A minorAm
spread his ashes with the breath of the last kiss that she blew
DmDm
they decorate when featherless
G+G
they celebrate through hungriness
G+G
and it's about time two minds combine
G+G
in such a fine, fine way

E minorEm

and may your lives be  long
	      E minorEm
and may your wishes all be simple
	      E minorEm
and may your hearts stay strong

and may your lives be  long
	      E minorEm
and may your wishes all be simple
	      E minorEm
