Bride Groom

F Dm A# C F Dm This city is haunted by the ghost of failure, I am one and you are one A# We've spent this whole time on the run from a lie that I told C That you closed your eyes and you chose to believe F So now you ask me for honesty, Just take a second, breathe Dm I'm not good enough for you, you were never good enough to me A# C No one's ever good enough to be, or have something so naïve F When I broke my hand on your car, when you told me you were leavin' Dm And I begged for your forgiveness, my broken fingers bleedin' A# C My heavy heart repeatin', afraid, just stay here with me Dm C A# F Then you took your clothes off instead, and you danced around my room Dm C A# F Don't worry, you said,'cause the end is coming soon Dm C A# F And we'll meet again someday and we'll toast these stunning ruins C A# C F For the bride I'll never be, and the groom F Dm A# C F Now I picture you like snowflakes, like desperate pouring rain Dm Like the beating of the drum in a parade of the insane A# You are the whisper in my ear, when I wake and no one's here C There's just the echo of your name F So now you ask me for honesty, I close my eyes, breathe, Dm I'm the one who always is so ready to leave A# To be a distant memory C To be a ship disappearing in the sea F And I crashed upon your rocks when I heard your voice singing Dm And I begged for your love with my busted ears ringing A# My hopeful heart repeating C You are more than the promise of the sea Dm C A# F Then you took your clothes off instead, and you danced around my room Dm C A# F Don't worry, you said,'cause the end is coming soon Dm C A# F And we'll meet again someday and we'll toast the cursed ruins C A# C F For the bride I'll never be, and the groom -End on C-
