The Dress chords by Emily Scott Robinson

Intro:
Bb F Eb
Bb F Eb

Verse 1:
Bb                       Eb         Bb
White cotton dress that tied at the waist
Gm          F               Eb
Bare summer arms and eyelet lace
    Bb                  Eb    Bb
Not short and not long, comes down to the knee
   Gm              F              Eb
On top of the laundry, folded and clean


But I could have sworn
       Bb                            F
That I threw that thing away back in June
Eb
Snuck out to the alley
                        Bb              F
And buried it under the trash, one afternoon
Cm               Eb        F
I can't trust my memory anymore

Chorus:
           Bb   F  Eb
Was it the dress I wore?
            Bb  F  Eb
Was it the wine he poured?
               Gm  F     Eb
Was there some sign I ignored?
               F  Eb             Gm    F   Eb Gm F Eb
Was there even time to run from that storm?


Verse 2:
       Bb                  Eb
I don't cry or go crazy, I just hold my breath
      Gm         F              Eb
Keep it all safe locked up in my chest
    Bb                         Eb         Bb
Deadbolt the front door, don't answer the phone
Gm                         F        Eb
Sleep with the lights on, afraid of being alone

                        Gm
And I go back through every detail
       F                Eb
Like a photograph in my mind
Cm                       Gm   F
Searching for what I did wrong
                Eb
I never find it in time


Chorus:
           Bb   F  Eb
Was it the dress I wore?
            Bb  F  Eb
Was it the wine he poured?
               Gm  F     Eb
Was there some sign I ignored?
               F  Eb             Gm    F   Eb Gm F Eb
Was there even time to run from that storm?

Outro:
                Gm F Eb
To run from that storm?
          Gm      F         Eb
I'm still runnin' from that storm
          Gm     F      Eb
I'm still runnin' from that storm
