Intro:
G+G E minorEm G+G E minorEm
Verse:
G+G
It's our anniversary
E minorEm
I leave it ajar
G+G
And go outside
E minorEm
To look at the driveway stars
G+G
The crickets are chirping
E minorEm
They stop at my step
G+G
I stop my step
E minorEm
And they start up again
Chorus:
A augmentedA
It's our anniversary and the bullfrogs
G+G E minorEm
And everything that can sing is singing its mating song
Verse:
G+G
The soil is steaming
E minorEm
Grass is swooning
G+G
Guns or fireworks are popping
E minorEm
Down in the town
G+G
A augmentedA woman is running
E minorEm
A augmentedA man jumps up and down
Chorus:
A augmentedA
Its our anniversary and you've hidden my keys
G+G E minorEm
This is one anniversary you're spending with me
Verse:
G+G
I slide in the front seat
E minorEm
The driver's side
G+G
To hotwire and hightail
E minorEm
Crosses my mind
G+G
But still in the driveway
E minorEm
Fixed like the stars
Chorus:
A augmentedA
I flip on the headlights and go back inside
The climates controlled while the battery dies
G+G E minorEm G+G E minorEm
Clipping the wings of your morning flight
A augmentedA
The night will end in some form of excess
G+G E minorEm
Pants around ankles too weak to fully undress
Verse:
G+G
Its our anniversary
E minorEm
A augmentedA celebration of
G+G
And here's to next year
E minorEm
Maybe you'll join me in my car
G+G
We'll drive together
E minorEm
But not too far
Instrumental:
A augmentedA
Verse:
G+G
We are far from flowers
E minorEm
Cut and dried
G+G
So let us thrive let us thrive
E minorEm
Let us thrive let us thrive
G+G
Just like the weeds
E minorEm
We curse sometimes
