First Verse:
Bm D G E
Synapse to synapse: the possibility's thin.
Bm D G E
I'm dressed up for free drinks and family greetings
Bm D G E
on your wedding, your wedding, your wedding date.
Bm D G E Bm D G E Bm D G E
The figures in plastic on the wedding cake that I took were so real.
Bm D G E
And I kept distance: the complications cloud
Bm D G E
the postcards and blips through fiber optics,
Bm D G E
as the girls with pigtails were running from little
Bm D G E Bm D G E
boys wearing bow ties their parents bought them: "I'll catch
Bm D G E
you this time!"
Chorus:
F# E Bm D G E
Crashing through the parlor doors, what was your first reaction?
F# E
Screaming, drunk, disorderly: I'll tell you mine.
Bm D G E Bm D G E
You were the one, but I can't spit it out when the date's been set.
Bm D G E Bm D G E
The white routine to be ingested inaccurately.
Second Verse:
Bm D G E
Synapse to synapse: the sneaky kids had attached
Bm D G E
beer cans to the bumper so they could drive
Bm D G E
up and down the main drag.
Bm D G E
People would turn to see who's making the racket.
Bm D G E
It's not
Bm D G E
the first time.
Bm D G E
When they lay down the fish will swim upstream
Bm D G E
and I'll contest, but they won't listen
Bm D G E
when the casualty rate's near 100%,
Bm D G E B D G E Bm D G E
and there isn't a pension for second best or for hard-----ly moving...
Chorus:
F# E Bm D G E
Crashing through the parlor doors, what was your first reaction?
F# E
Screaming, drunk, disorderly: I'll tell you mine.
Bm D G E Bm D G E
You were the one, but I can't spit it out when the date's been set.
Bm D G E Bm D G E
The white routine to be ingested inaccurately.
Bm D G E Bm D G E
You were the one, but I can't spit it out when the date's been set.
Bm D G E Bm D G E
The white routine to be ingested inaccurately.
