Intro C-Am-C-Am-
C Am
Met my old lover in a grocery store
C AmThe snow was falling Christmas eve
I stole behind her in the frozen foods
D7/F# FM7 GAnd I touched her on her sleeve
C AmShe didn't recognize the face at first
But then her eye flew open wide
C AmShe went to hug me and she spilled her purse
D7 FM7 GAnd we laughed until we cried.
Interlude: (Do intro chords)
She took her groc'ries to the check-out stand
C AmThe food was totaled up and bagged
C AmWe stood there lost in our embarrassment
As the conversation dragged
C AmWent to have ourselves a drink or two
C AmBut couldn't find and open bar
Bought a six-pack at the liquor store
D7 FM7 GAnd we drank it in her car.
Refrain:
We drank a toast to innocence
G AmWe drank a toast to now
Am FWe tried to reach beyond the emptiness
But neither one knew how.
(2nd Verse Chords)
She said she married her an architect
Who kept her warm and safe and dry
She would've liked to say she loved the man
But she didn't like to lie.
I said the years had been a friend to her
And her eyes was still as blue
But in those eyes I wasn't sure if I
Saw a doubt of gratitude.
She said she saw in the record stores
C AmAnd that I must be doing well
C AmI said the audience was heavenly
But the travelling was hell.
Refrain:
Am FWe drank a toast to innocence
We drank a toast to now
Am FWe tried to reach beyond the emptiness
GBut neither one knew how.
We drank a toast to innocence,
G AmWe drank a toast to time.
Am FReliving in our eloquence
G pause
Another "auld lang syne."
(2nd Verse Chords)
The beer was empty and our tongues were tired
And running out of things to say
She gave a kiss to me as I got out
And I watched her drive away
Just for a moment I was back in school
And felt that old familiar pain
And as I turned to make my way back home
FM7/G-GThe snow turned into rain.
