into G***

[G] Every Sunday morning I wake up
[C] I see you by your dresser doing your [G] make-up
Fluttering a Chinese [Em] fan in a Knoxville fashion
[G] All last night you tossed and turned
[C] Your body was hotter than the night that Richmond [G] burned
You say you had a bad nightmare [Em] about tractor trailers crashing

[C] Throw your arms around me [G]
[G] Let's keep this quiet
[C] Hear our hearts in the distance [G] like cannon fire
[C] See our breath in the window, [G] in the turning light
[Em] Oh it's a [D] wonderful [G] life
[ Tab from: https://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/t/the_felice_brothers/wonderful_life_crd.html ]
[G] You say you were only seventeen when
[C] You fell in love with that dirty Reverend [G] Green
I remember you at the baptism [Em] as he held his daughter down
[G] We could hear Thelma and Louise
[C] Making love under the poplar [G] trees
We could hear some screaming, [Em] sounded like a slaughterhouse

[C] Throw your arms around me [G]
[G] Let's keep this quiet
[C] Hear our hearts in the distance [G] like cannon fire
[C] See our breath in the window, [G] in the siren light
[Em] Oh it's a [D] wonderful [G] life

[G] Me and Joey started a fire in the road
[C] Just to watch it glow
[G] His father didn't like it though, [Em] he gave Joey a black eye
[G] Me and you we did the same damn thing
[C] We fell in love knowing the pain it would [G] bring
Now all I do is sing sad songs [Em] with red eyes

[C] Throw your arms around me [G]
[G] Let's keep this quiet
[C] Hear our hearts in the distance [G] like cannon fire
[C] See our breath in the window, [G] in the turning light
[Em] Oh it's a [D] wonderful [G] life
