G
I still recall
Em C
The awful clanging of those wedding bells
D G
I prayed your Billy would go straight to hell
C D G
That Sunday morning
G
Yes I did compete
Em C
With the heart of a fool but I must retreat
D G
Go back to Nashville lay down in the street
C D G
As a final warning
G
Your love is gone
D C
For me, for you, and for everyone
D G
Kidnap the moon, assassinate the sun
C D G
It's time for mourning
C
Well I can stand the winter and the blazing heat
D
I can stand the riots in the city streets
Em C
My love for you will stand the test of time
D
The happiest day of your life
C D G
Was the worst day of mine
G C D G
G
I stood in the park
D C
Like a photograph until way after dark
D G
In a rented suit holding my homeless heart
C D G
In the freezing summer
G
Could not stand the test
D C
Choked on the words, 'I wish you the best'
D G
Walked away and put my gifts with the rest
C D G
But my box was empty
C
Well I can stand the winter and the blazing heat
D
I can stand the riots in the city streets
Em C
My love for you will stand the test of time
D
The happiest day of your life
C D G
Was the worst day of mine
G C D G
G
Eighty-six Fahrenheit
D C
I stand alone in the punishing light
D G
Burning the thought of you out of my mind
C C G
But it ain't working
G
I love you babe
D C
First time I said it I was so afraid
D G
Wish I'd said it on your wedding day
C D G
Life would be amazing
C
Well I can stand the winter and the blazing heat
D
I can stand the riots in the city streets
Em C
My love for you will stand the test of time
D
The happiest day of your life
C D G
Was the worst day of mine
