(Intro)

A - E - A - E (2x) 


(Verse)

          A                              E
After the breakup, I really thought we'd make up
                  F#m                                   D
Give her a little time, I'd be on her mind and suddenly she'd wake up
                 A                         E
But today if you listen, softly off in the distance
                 F#m                                     D
Somewhere across town, you can hear the sound of wedding bells ringing
            A
And there's birdseed on the concrete and she's waving goodbye
 

(Chorus)

                    E                 A             E
And they're driving away, everybody's cheering them on
                  E          A            E
As the taillights fade, yeah she's really gone
          D       E          A
I thought someday that would be me
                      A            E
But now she's driving away in that limousine
                D         E            A
And I'm holding on like a tin can on a string

(Verse)
 
                A                       E
Somewhere in my mind, I'm the one by her side
            F#m                                          D
In that backseat talking 'bout the beach, and that honeymoon flight
                 A                        E
I play the whole thing out, from the kids to the house
       F#m                         D
To the future that we always dreamed about
            A
But there's birdseed on the concrete back here in reality
 

(Chorus)

                    E                 A             E
And they're driving away, everybody's cheering them on
                  E          A            E
As the taillights fade, yeah she's really gone
          D       E          A
I thought someday that would be me
                      A            E
But now she's driving away in that limousine
                D         E            A
And I'm holding on like a tin can on a string


INSTR.

A - E - A


(Verse)

          D       E          A
I thought someday that would be me
                      A            E
But now she's driving away in that limousine
            F#m                      D
And I'm not ready to let go of everything
               A               E                      A
So I'm holding on, I'm holding on like a tin can on a string


(Outro)

A - A - E - A - E
