Elizabeth & Elizabeth,
G
Oh Elizabeth & Elizabeth,
C G
These city legs cannot take the hard gravel of your driveway,
G C G
You and your advanced books,
G C G
You and your polka dotted look,
C G
We rang bells made out of clay and yelled for somebody to save us,
[Pre-Chorus]
C
Well now all these years all I can say is I wish I had been more brave for you,
C
Don't you worry pretty soon we'll see the big hot air balloon,
G
and we'll let them land right here,
[Chorus]
G C
and we'll meet here every year by the river
G C
and we'll meet here every year by the river
G C
and we'll meet here every year by the river
G C
and we'll meet here every year
[Bridge]
G C
oh, did I mention I am terrible afraid of all the crawfish,
Let's build a fort instead,
G
I swear to keep it safe to the day that I am dead,
We could paint college dorms forever,
C
or I could get famous and then our moms would never have to ever work again,
G
Remember when we were campin',
C
Your dad knew all about the bears,
Said you can scare 'em with your yellin',
G
Now I raise my voice when I tell him that I don't hear him,
C
but he still stood right there,
[Pre-Chorus]
G
and so my question is,
C
how in the world do you get rid
G C
oh-oh-oh-of someone who seems to care care care care!
G C
and now I care, now I care
D
now I care
C
oh, I don't know, guess I'll give in
[Verse]
G C G G C G
Oh Elizabeth and Elizabeth,
C
let your phone ring,
G
for I have ruined everything
