Shotgun Wedding
By: Jason Isbell & The 400 Unit


Intro:

D MajorD E minorEm G+G D MajorD E minorEm G+G D MajorD


Verse I:

G+G           D MajorD
Ten years out of high school
G+G           D MajorD
Still no idea what to do
G+G            D MajorD
You took him home from a night club
G+G            D MajorD
He took a night club to you

Verse II:

G+G            D MajorD
Now I watch from the window
G+G       D MajorD
Too guilty to scream
G+G        D MajorD
My feet are like steel, I
G+G       D MajorD
Might be in a dream


Bridge:
         A augmentedA                 G+G       D MajorD
But every time I see you, you look bigger than you did the day before
       A augmentedA                G+G  D MajorD
Even though I know it's not my fault I wish it was
      A augmentedA              G+G         D MajorD
I can only ride the elevator all night long from floor to floor
        A augmentedA                G+G  D MajorD
And I can only stand outside your window in the dust


Chorus:
        D MajorD      E minorEm
So how about a shotgun wedding
        G+G   D MajorD
What about your dignity
              E minorEm
What about a different setting
      G+G D MajorD
What about me
              E minorEm
All your daddy's wishes, honor
      G+G    D MajorD
All of that security
             E minorEm
How about a shotgun wedding
      G+G D MajorD
What about me

Verse III:

G+G        D MajorD
I guess I'm a loner
G+G       D MajorD
Some call me a freak
G+G        D MajorD
Saw you in the hallway
G+G       D MajorD
Too guilty to speak


Verse IV:

G+G           D MajorD
Now I sleep in the daytime
G+G         D MajorD
And I sleep on the floor
G+G      D MajorD
I dial your number
G+G          D MajorD
And I knock on your door


Bridge:
         A augmentedA                  G+G      D MajorD
But every time I hear your voice or footsteps, I get frozen in my place
       A augmentedA                G+G  D MajorD
And I have to struggle for the courage just to run
   A augmentedA                     G+G        D MajorD
I can see the eyes of all the ones that left you glowing in your face
         A augmentedA                   G+G  D MajorD
And I just wanna help you with this life that you've begun


Chorus:

        D MajorD      E minorEm
So how about a shotgun wedding
        G+G   D MajorD
What about your dignity
              E minorEm
What about a different setting
      G+G D MajorD
What about me
              E minorEm
All your daddy's wishes, honor
      G+G    D MajorD
All of that security
             E minorEm
What about a shotgun wedding
      G+G D MajorD
What about me
       D MajorD      E minorEm
What about a shotgun wedding
      G+G  D MajorD
What about me
