Intro
C* G x4
C* G C* G
Cath, she stands
C* G C* G
With a well-intentioned man
C* G C* G
But she can't relax
C* G C* G
With his hands on the small of her back
C* G C* G
And as the flashbulbs burst
C* G C* G
She holds a smile
C* G C* G
Like someone would hold
C* G C* G
A crying child
Em7 A7sus4 C#d C* G C* G
And soon everybody will ask what became of you
Em7 A7s4 C#d C* G C* G
When your heart was dying fast and you didn't know what to do
C* G x4
C* G C* G
Cath, it seems
C* G C* G
That you live in someone else's dream
C* G C* G
In a hand-me-down wedding dress
C* G C* G
With the things that could've been, all repressed
C* G C* G
But you said your vows
C* G C* G
And you closed the door
C* G C* G
On so many men
C* G C* G
Who would've loved you more
Em7 A7sus4 C#d C* G C* G
And soon everybody will ask what became of you
Em7 A7s4 C#d C* G Gmaj7 C* G
When your heart was dying fast and you didn't know what to do
Em7 The whispers A7sus4 that it won't C#d last roll up and C down the pews C/B A7sus4
Em7 But if their hearts were A7sus4 dying that C#d fast they'd have done
C* G Gmaj7 C* G
The same as you
C* G D/G C* G
And I'd have done the same as you
Em7 A7sus4 C#d
Note: In some videos on youtube of Ben playing this live he plays
C* G(add9) C* G(add9)
during the verse, but it doesn't sound like he's doing that in this version.
