Tom: G G Em Am D I remember hiding my liquor in the travel mug as I walked down G Em To the old church where I had surrendered Am D My day's freedom to fuck with the sound G Em Play an old song, turn all the mics on Am D So all your friends and family hear your vows G Em For you to jump on a train I'd soon be off Am D If we could only get our feet to the ground [Chorus] C G And all your friends, they all gather around you Em C G I take another gulp and turn up the volume Em C G They're all praising Jesus for making you brand new Em Am D7 Despite your last name, you look exactly the same to me [Instrumental] G Em Am D7 [Verse 2] G Em Out of town friends came crashing the party Am D We talked about what we'd all done differently G Em Two star buffets, running through the rain Am D Desperate for anything to make me feel clean G Em Well, now you are smiling, I know you've been lying Am D It's okay, babe, we've gotta convince our friends G Em Till one of them touched me, assuring the feeling Am D I knew suddenly we were nearing the end [Chorus] C G Then all the guests, they start beating their glassware Em C G Till the couple kisses and applause chokes out our air Em C G We'll surely miss them for the next 60 years Em Am D7 G Though we are still here, it seems that love makes you disappear [Instrumental] G Em Am D7 x2 [Bridge] C D Oh now they get up and pull us aside G Em Saying, "friends, isn't love such a beautiful ride?" C D I try not to shrug, say, "sure, man, it's fine," G Em Take the quickest route outside [Chorus] C G Where all the birds are picking seed from the sidewalk Em C G My speech is slurred but I keep trying hard to talk Em C G You've lost your patience for the crooked way I walk Em Am D7 Though you say we're fine, you keep on constantly checking the time
