Verse 1:
G+G E minorEm A minorAm D MajorD
I remember hiding my liquor in the travel mug as I walked down
G+G E minorEm
To the old church where I had surrendered
A minorAm D MajorD
My day's freedom to fuck with the sound
G+G E minorEm
Play an old song, turn all the mics on
A minorAm D MajorD
So all your friends and family hear your vows
G+G E minorEm
For you to jump on a train I'd soon be off
A minorAm D MajorD
If we could only get our feet to the ground

And all your friends, they all gather around you

Verse 2:
G+G E minorEm
Out of town friends came crashing the party
A minorAm D MajorD
We talked about what we'd all done differently
G+G E minorEm
Two star buffets, running through the rain
A minorAm D MajorD
Desperate for anything to make me feel clean
G+G E minorEm
Well, now you are smiling, I know you've been lying
A minorAm D MajorD
It's okay, babe, we've gotta convince our friends
G+G E minorEm
Till one of them touched me, assuring the feeling
A minorAm D MajorD
I knew suddenly we were nearing the end

C majorC G+G
Then all the guests, they start beating their glassware
E minorEm C majorC G+G
Till the couple kisses and applause chokes out our air

Though we are still here, it seems that love makes you disappear

Oh now they get up and pull us aside
G+G E minorEm
Saying, "friends, isn't love such a beautiful ride?"

I try not to shrug, say, "sure, man, it's fine,"
G+G E minorEm
Take the quickest route outside

C majorC G+G
Where all the birds are picking seed from the sidewalk
E minorEm C majorC G+G
My speech is slurred but I keep trying hard to talk
E minorEm C majorC G+G
You've lost your patience for the crooked way I walk
E minorEm A minorAm D7D7
Though you say we're fine, you keep on constantly checking the time
