Tom: G
G Am C
I met you as a wanderer, a restless aching soul
G Am C
Like a storm out of Ohio, I blew in with the cold
D
You asked if I liked hockey
C
And if I wanted to go
G Am C
to see the minor leagues play since we talk all afternoon
G Am C
Kept a secret from our bosses know that they wouldn’t approve
D
You were too afraid to kiss me
C
So I had to make the move
[Chorus]
C G D C
You were my break in the rain
G D
The hour of sun on our wedding day
C G D C
You were the light on Laurel Lake
G D
Singing “Satisfied” in harmony
Em C G
And I just wanted to be tethered to you endlessly
[Instrumental]
Am C
G Am C
[Verse 2]
G
You moved into my apartment
Am C
Been together a few months
G
It’s a dated little shithole
Am C
Four people living there at once
D
When we moved out in the springtime
C
Still had the Christmas tree left up
G
Begged you to walk with me through DC
Am C
Up 17th Street heading north
G
Over all the cherry blossoms
Am C
that had blown off in the storm
D
Put our feet into the fountain
C
Told you I loved you to your core
[Chorus]
C G D C
You were my break in the rain
G D
The hour of sun on our wedding day
C G D C
You were the light on Laurel Lake
G D
Singing “Satisfied” in harmony
C G D C
You were my break in the rain
G D
My arch of hydrangeas and peonies
C G D C
You were the light on Laurel Lake
G D
The summer Carolina humidity
Em C G
And I just wanted to be tethered to you endlessly
