It w Em as two weeks after the day she turne G d 18
All dressed in Em white, going to the church that G night
She had his Em box of letters in the passenger G seat
Six pins and a Em shoe, something borrowed, someth G ing blue
And when the C church doors Em opened up wide
She put her C veil down Em trying to hide the t G ears
Oh she just couldn''t believe it
She heard the C trumpets from the military band
And the D flowers fell out of her hands
(Chorus)
G Baby, why''d you leave me, why''d you have to go
I was Em counting on forever, now I''ll never C know
G I can''t even br D eathe
It''s like I'' G m looking from a distance, standing in the background
Em Everybody''s saying, he''s not coming hom C e now,
This can''t be G happening to D me
This is just a drea Em m G
The preacher man said let us bow our head and pray
Lord please lift his soul and heal this hurt
Then the congregation all stood up
And sang the saddest song that she ever heard
Then they handed her a folded up flag
And she held on to all she had left of him
Oh, and what could''ve been
And then guns rang one last shot
And it felt like a bullet in her heart
(Chorus x2)
