Everyone Watched The Wedding

G - D/F# - Em - C - D

::Verse #1::
G                                 
Sister’s got her baby now and I’m 
D/F#
glad for what she did
        Em
But her older one’s in trouble, man 
I really love that kid
 C                            D
Maybe he could live here, for us it 
would be nice
     C                             
He needs some time to grow up, 
     D
needs a father in his life


::Verse #2::
G                      D/F#
Me I guess I’m lucky, mine have 
almost grown
       Em
It’s amazing what they turn into 
from a seed that we have sown
    C                              
I remember nights just lying there,
 D
 worrying a while
   C                             D
I look across the room now, and I 
see them and I smile


::Verse #3::
G                              
All we ever want at night’s our 
D/F#
families to be safe
       Em
So we hold their hands and pick them
 up until they take their place
      C                            
We know that there’s no promises, no
D
 no guarantees
         C                     
So we pray and pray and pray at 
         D
night whatever will be will be


::Pre-Chorus::
C   Em/B   C           D     C 
Oh look at it coming down, 
    Em/B  C              D
making a mess of this whole town

And I think that I know why


::Chorus::
G                                 
Everyone watched the wedding, two 
         D/F#
people in love
Continúa después del anuncio
                Em
Two people whose blessing comes from
 higher up above
       D                   C      
They’re not like you and me, they 
              D
were destined to be
                           G    
Oh everyone watched the wedding, 
                D/F#
couldn’t get enough
                Em
At least for one moment we were 
right there up above
          D                    C  
Looking down on all the royal fuss
                               D
 Monday we were back upon the bus
 C                                 
Driving through the neighbourhoods 
      D
and factories that are us
      C                            
That one day, hope was all that we 
       D
could see
                      G   D/F#    Em
And they looked so beautiful to me
                           C
Hope was all that we could see
                    D           G
And they looked so beautiful to me

::Interlude::
G - D/F# - Em - D - C - D

::Verse #4::
    G                           
Oh sister I am tapped out, this 
D/F#
month is really bad
         Em
Can you hold on through May and then
 I’ll give you what I have
C                        D
Everything is going up, business 
going down
         C                         
I’ve been through this so many 
        D
times it always comes around


::Verse #5::
      G                       D/F#
My brother he’s a charmer, a snake 
with a silver tongue
     Em
Sometimes he up and disappears and 
we don’t know where he’s gone
      C                     D
My mother she’s a fighter, always 
made her way
      C                         D
She can’t believe she worries about 
us all to this day


::Verse #6::
G                    D/F#
Me I just keep going, guess that 
I’ll be fine
      Em
But I can’t believe I keep my head 
above the waterline
         C                         
Some people round here want to get 
D
rich and run away
         C                       
That’s not for me no, I’ve got so 
          D
many reasons to stay


::Pre-Chorus::
C   Em/B   C         D       C 
Oh look at it coming down, 
    Em/B  C           D
making a mess of this damn town

And I think that I know why


::Chorus::
G

     C                         
That knowing all our lives will 
      D
never be
                  G   D/F#    Em
But they looked so beautiful to me
                        C
All our lives will never be
                      D        G
But they looked so beautiful to me
