It was two weeks after the day she turned eighteen
Em
All dressed in white
Going to the church that night
Em

She had his box of letters in the passenger seat
Em

Sixpence in a shoe, something barrowed, something blue
C
And when the church doors opened up wide
She put her veil down
G
Trying to hide the tears
Oh she just couldn't believe it
C
She heard trumpets from the military band
D
And the flowers that I never had
G
Baby why'd you leave me
Why'd you have to go?
Em

I was counting on forever, now I'll never know
C
D
I can't even breathe
G
It's like I'm looking from a distance
Standing in the background
Em

Everybody's saying, he's not coming home now
C
D
This can't be happening to me
Em
G
This is just a dream

Standing in the background
