7x

My version by ear.



Capo 2



          G

After the breakup,

                      D

I really thought we'd make up.

                  Em

Give her a little time, I'd be on her mind

                   C

And suddenly she'd wake up.

                 G

But today if you listen,

                  D

Softly off in the distance,

                 Em

Somewhere 'cross town, you can hear the sound

                 C

Of wedding bells ringing.

            C

And there's bird seed on the concrete,

    G                D

And she's waving goodbye



                    C

And they're driving away

    G                       D                   C

And everybody cheerin' them on as the taillights fade

     G            D

Yeah she's really gone,

              C   D          D7

I thought someday that would be me

                      G                 D

But now she's driving away in that limousine

                C

And I'm holdin' on

       D             G

Like a tin can on a string.



             G

Somewhere in my mind,

               D

I'm the one by her side.

            Em

In that backseat, talkin' 'bout the beach

                  C

And that honeymoon flight.

                   G

I'd play the whole thing out,

                 D

From the kids to the house,

       Em                            C

To the future that we always dreamed about.

            C

But there's bird seed on the concrete,

    G                D

And back here in reality



              C

She's driving away

         G                  D                   C

And everybody cheerin' them on as the taillights fade

     G            D

Yeah she's really gone,

              C   D          D7

I thought someday that would be me

                      G                 D

But now she's driving away in that limousine

                C

And I'm holdin' on

       D            G

Like a tin can on a string.



G C D G



              C   D          D7

I thought someday that would be me

                      G                 D

But now she's driving away in that limousine

            Em                      C

And I'm not ready to let go of everything

               G              D

So I'm holdin' on, I'm holdin' on





*Short Pause*



                    G

Like a tin can on a string.
